Yesterday after 5:30 p.m., a car collided with a motorhome on the A2 motorway near Mezzovico. The car, bearing Swiss plates, rear-ended the motorhome, which left the road and came to rest on an embankment.
Seven people were injured. The car driver suffered life-threatening injuries, the motorhome driver serious injuries, and the other passengers minor injuries. The motorhome's Spanish owners were hospitalised.
The cat Nino, who was in the motorhome, was reportedly thrown from the vehicle and fled. A notice has been posted on social media asking for information about the animal's whereabouts via a listed phone number.
