So much fear but fortunately there were no victims, only damage to parked cars. A lady, who was passing by car along the road, managed to get out of the passenger compartment a few moments earlier. Then huge stones have in fact interrupted the viability and touched the houses close to the rocky ridge. Tragedy touched, therefore, in San Fratello, where thirty buildings have already been evacuated. In the meantime, the intervention of the rock climbers has been arranged to explore the front of the landslide and then evaluate the measures for the safety of the rocky ridge.
