British girl, five, killed in ski slope tragedy in the Alps

Investigations are continuing on Monday (January 17) after a five-year-old British girl was killed in a collision on a ski slope in the Alps.

French media say the girl was one of five children taking part in a ski lesson in Flaine, in the Haute-Savoie region of France, when she was “violently” struck by another skier who lost control on Saturday morning, according to France Bleu.

The child, said to have been living in Geneva, Switzerland, is reported to have been hit near the edge of a blue slope, Les Serpentines, and died shortly afterwards.
