(ANSA) - L'AQUILA, AUG 27 - Lightning struck three boys just above the astronomical observatory of Campo Imperatore: two of them were thrown, while the other was transported to the hospital in L'Aquila in serious condition.

At the moment we do not know the origin of the three hikers.

The moment we know only that the seriously injured boy is called Simone and that he may have been transported by the other two further down the summer path above the Observatory.

To give the alarm to the staff working around the cable car was an altroturista who came down.

The two companions of the injured man went down the valley by cable car with their legs, while Simone, apparently 25 years old, was transported by helicopter 118 to L'Aquila.

According to the testimonies collected, the lightning would have fallen around 12.30,

while in the area, which is well above 2,000 meters and which is now in full fog, at that moment there was no intense lightning activity such as to be able to think of an imminent danger.
