Tourist Boat Sinks on Lake Maggiore, With Three Dead and One Missing

Boat With British Tourists Sinks on Lake Maggiore Italy- 3 Dead, One Missing

Several English tourists were said to be celebrating a birthday when a "whirlwind" tipped the boat on Lake Maggiore, which is on the border between Italy and Switzerland

BBC 29 MAY 2023

At least three people have died after a boat carrying more than 20 passengers, including tourists, sank in strong winds on Lake Maggiore in northern Italy, local media say.

One person is still missing, according to reports.

The boat overturned on Sunday evening between the towns of Sesto Calende and Arona, Italian media say.

Italy's fire service said 19 people were safe but their search continued for those reported missing.

Five people were taken to hospital after being rescued. Unconfirmed reports in Italian media say the boat's passengers were British, Italian and Israeli.

Attilio Fontana, president of the Lombardy region, said the "very serious incident" was due to bad weather.

The boat was 16m (52ft) long and had been hired by tourists, he said on Facebook.

According to Italian news outlets, the boat had been carrying around 25 people who were celebrating a birthday when a storm developed over the lake, later turning into a "small hurricane". The boat capsized and sank soon afterwards.

Everyone onboard went into the water - but many of the passengers swam ashore or were rescued by other boats.

Rescue divers and a helicopter scrambled to help with the search at the lake's southern end, and several ambulances and an air ambulance attended the scene.

A video shared by firefighters showed chairs and other debris floating in choppy waters.

Lake Maggiore - on the south side of the Alps - is shared by Italy and Switzerland, and is a popular destination for tourists.

The area has seen poor weather over the last day, with Italy's meteorological service issuing thunderstorm warnings.
