An 11-year-old child was
killed and his younger brother badly injured in a head-on
collision that also took the life of an alleged car thief in
northern Italy.
Police are investigating the crash they say involved a
19-year-old thief who was fleeing in a stolen vehicle when the
collision occurred early Wednesday evening near Verolanuova,
about 35 kilometres from Brescia.
The alleged thief was killed instantly, they said, while
the 11-year-old died of injuries soon after.
A six-year-old boy is in serious condition in hospital
while the children's father is said to be in serious but not
life-threatening condition.
