On Tuesday, a 10-year-old girl lost her life in a skiing accident in the resort of Villard-de-Lans in Isère, during a school trip organized by her establishment. Evolving with a “3rd star” level group on a blue connecting slope, the young skier left her trajectory for reasons still undetermined and hit a rock wall bordering the slope.
In cardiorespiratory arrest upon the arrival of rescuers from the high mountain gendarmerie platoon (PGHM) of Isère and a doctor from Samu 38, the little girl was able to be resuscitated, reported Le Dauphiné Libéré.

“Despite her helmet, she suffered head trauma and died in the evening (Wednesday) at 8:30 p.m.,” said prosecutor Eric Vaillant in a press release published Wednesday evening.
-An investigation into manslaughter was opened by the prosecution and entrusted to the gendarmes of the Haute Montagne Gendarmerie Platoon to determine the exact circumstances of this tragic accident.
