Swiss horse carriage crash kills 1, injures 12

A horse-drawn carriage carrying tourists went out of control in the Swiss resort of Val Roseg on Saturday, killing a 73-year-old woman and injuring 12 others, police said. The driver lost control on a sloping stretch and tried to steer toward flatter ground, but one horse fell and the carriage hit a tree, ejecting some passengers.

Two of the injured are in serious condition. Police have launched an investigation into the accident, which occurred near the Italian border. About 40 people were on two carriages travelling through the woods at the time.
