TBILISI, DFWatch–A 12-year-old girl died Sunday in Gudauri, a winter resort in northern Georgia, when a 18-year-old man lost control of his skis and crashed into her.

The girl died on the spot, while the young man was injured and taken to the hospital in Gudauri. According to doctors, his condition is serious.

The incident happened on the first sports track in Gudauri.

“He crashed into the girl like a freak. I don’t know whether he was drunk or not. People tried to give the girl heart massage for 20 minutes, but couldn’t save her,” Irakli, a person who witnessed the incident writes on Facebook. “The father of the girl was there too. It was terrible.”

The Interior Ministry has launched an investigation under article 116 of the Criminal Code about death caused by negligence.
