A 70-year-old man died overnight from Monday to Tuesday after his car fell in the commercial port of Bastia after disembarking from the ferry, reports Corse-Morning. Another 65-year-old man and two ladies, aged 60 and 70, also present in the vehicle, were able to be saved by the emergency services.
The car, in which the septuagenarian was lying, was found ten meters deep about twenty minutes after the accident, the precise circumstances of which have not yet been established. This ship from the Corsica Ferries company made its Corsica-Continent link. He was initially supposed to disembark at L’Île-Rousse, but had diverted to the port of Bastia due to harsh weather conditions due to the mistral, specifies the Corsican daily.
