Nine die as concrete block hits cable car line

Nine German tourists, including six children, were killed yesterday when a helicopter dropped a concrete block on a cable car line they were travelling on at a popular Austrian ski resort.The helicopter was ferrying building materials to a construction site atop a nearby mountain when the 750kg (1,650lb) block tumbled free, knocking one car off the cable and leaving others swinging so violently that their passengers were thrown out.
