Police officer killed in A4 accident

(ANSA) - Novara, September 28 - A 28-year-old police officer was killed and a colleague injured in the night between Tuesday and Wednesday when a van driver hit their stationary car on the A4 Turin-Milan highway near the northern city of Novara.
    The van driver also died while a fourth person involved in the accident reported injuries.
    The dead policeman's colleague, aged 35, is being treated at a hospital in Novara.
    Last night's accident was the third to be reported on the A4 in just a few days.
    A large lorry near Rondissone, Turin, last Friday ran over and killed a Moroccan couple and injured their three children, including a newborn.
    The lorry driver was found to be under the influence of alcohol.
    Two nights later, Marco Belfiore, a 60-year-old civil protection officer travelling northwards from the quake-hit Lazio town of Amatrice died after his jeep overturned near the northern towns of Saluggia and Rondissone.
