An accident occurred at Punta San Vigilio yesterday, Sunday, December 15, when a 73-year-old woman from Verona was rescued by the Verona Alpine and Speleological Rescue Team. The woman was with friends near the rock engravings when she sustained a suspected ankle injury. The group immediately raised the alarm around 11 AM.
The rescuers reached the scene of the incident after about twenty minutes of walking, as access by vehicle was not possible. After administering first aid and stabilizing the woman’s ankle, the rescuers transported her on a stretcher to the ambulance, which took her to Peschiera Hospital for further examination.
