A seven-year-old girl who was injured by a "stray" stone on the Limassol-Nicosia highway is fighting for her life.
According to the Police, it was around noon when the little girl was in her father's vehicle, which was driving on the highway towards Nicosia.
Under circumstances that are being investigated, at the height of Monte Caputo, a stone was hurled by a truck heading in the opposite direction (Nicosia to Limassol), broke the windshield of the car and seriously injured the little girl sitting in the back seats.
The seven-year-old was rushed to the Makarios Hospital, where she is being treated with a brain hematoma and a skull fracture, and her health condition is judged to be very serious.
