A series of car accidents occurred in the evening along the Variante Sette bis of Avellino within the municipality of Atripalda. Three cars were involved, one of which overturned.
The accident happened not far from the exit for Salerno. The occupants of the vehicles were injured. Emergency responders and law enforcement were on the scene.
The already heavy traffic for Easter Monday was thrown into chaos. The repercussions were also severe on other roads. The dynamics of the accident are being reconstructed. The road being slippery from rain might have contributed to the crash.
Another accident occurred on the A16 highway in the direction of Naples in the territory of Monteforte Irpino.
