Nine injured after Ryanair flight hits turbulence
A Milan-bound Ryanair flight was forced to make an emergency landing in southern Germany late on Wednesday due to heavy turbulence from a thunderstorm, with nine passengers injured, police said. The flight from Berlin landed safely in Memmingen, about 115 kilometers (70 miles) west of Munich, after bad weather prompted the pilot to initiate the emergency landing, Bavaria police said in a statement. Among the injured were a woman who sustained a head injury, her two-year-old toddler who suffered bruises and a 59-year-old woman complaining of back pain, police said. All three were treated in hospital, while other injuries were treated at the scene. Ryanair said in a statement on Thursday that the flight's captain had requested medical assistance ahead of landing. The airline added that a replacement flight had been arranged to take passengers to Milan and apologized to those affected. Police, however, had said in their Wednesday statement that the airline was organizing a bus transfer because local aviation authorities did not immediately clear onwards flights.
