Crucifixion kills, now so does the crucifix
Italian woman killed when two-metre metal crucifix falls from monument

ROME (AP) - A woman was killed Wednesday when a two-metre-tall metal crucifix fell on her head in a small town in southern Italy, police said.

Maddalena Camillo, 72, was walking in the main square in the village of Sant'Onofrio when the crucifix toppled from a monument being restored for a religious celebration, police said.

Sant'Onofrio is in the region of Calabria, the toe of the boot-shaped Italian peninsula, about 600 kilometres south of Rome.
