A dog fell from the third floor of a house onto a pregnant woman in Rome on Friday. The 28-year-old pedestrian was seriously injured in the center of the Italian capital, but her life was not in danger, rescuers said.
It is said that the unborn child suffered no injuries. The dog, a Rottweiler, fell for unknown reasons from a height of about ten meters to the ground in a street in the center of the Italian capital. The animal did not survive the blow.
Woman suffered head injuries
The young woman was taken to hospital for treatment after the incident. She suffered head injuries, the Corriere della Sera newspaper reported. The scene of the accident is a side street of the Via del Corso shopping street in the Roman old town, which is popular with locals and tourists. Many passers-by were on the street at the time of the incident.
It is still unclear why exactly the Rottweiler fell onto the street from the third floor. According to an initial reconstruction by the emergency services, there were also several cats in the household. The dog may have lost his balance after jumping onto the windowsill and falling into the depths. The owner is in shock.
