Cervinia, lift accident last week?

Hi,
We were in Cervinia last week and saw a heli-evac right by the Plan Maison
chairlift (about Thursday IIRC). We were told that a man (thought to be a
Brit) and his child had fallen from the chair onto hard-packed piste,
receiving serious injuries, after a gust caught their chair.
I wonder if they'd lifted the safety bar too early - which most people
do.
I didn't like the sound of the chairlift accident in the Sierra Nevada
either.
