What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Catania prosecutors seized Rifugio Sapienza, a hotel located on Mount Etna, after a carbon monoxide incident affected thirty-two guests and six employees. Fire brigade checks suggest the gas leak may have originated from a malfunction in an LPG-powered boiler's exhaust system. The seizure is part of an investigation into the hotel's operations and the September 16 death of a tourist from Singapore.
