Boulder Nearly Destroys Italian Home
A huge boulder unleashed by a
landslide in northern Italy narrowly missed a farmhouse, destroyed a
barn and came to a stop in vineyards. A second boulder stopped just feet behind the traditional stone farmhouse in the rocky region of Alto-Adige. Nobody
was injured in the tumble from mountains overlooking the village of
Ronchi di Termeno.
