Cable Car Crashes
A cable car crashed to the ground in the Armenian capital Yerevan
today, killing three passengers and injuring six others, officials
said.
The aerial cable car was carrying nine passengers when it plummeted
from a height of some 65 feet after the cable broke, Emergency
Situations Department spokesman Araik Movseyan said.
One of the dead and two of the injured were Armenian citizens, he
said. Prosecutors have opened a criminal case and an investigation.
