On Tuesday afternoon, a car carrying two children rolled away from a parking lot in Surava in the direction of the Albula river. The car overturned and was stopped by bushes.

According to the cantonal police of Graubünden, a 44-year-old woman was preparing her car for departure in Surava at 5.10 p.m. on Tuesday.

The vehicle parked at the edge of the parking lot began to roll in the direction of the Albula river.

After a short rolling phase, it overturned on the sloping embankment and was stopped by bushes. The children were freed from the car before the emergency services arrived.
