Rome, June 1 (TIWN) A five-year-old boy, who is the sole survivor of last week's Italian cable car accident, is set to leave the intensive care unit on Tuesday, according to hospital officialsn.

Fourteen people died on May 23 when a gondola on a cable car line crashed to the ground while ascending from Stresa, Italy, to Mount Mottarone. The victims included the boy's parents and his sibling. The cause of the accident remains unclear, though prosecutors have alleged that operators used a temporary fix to keep the system running when it should have been shut down for more thorough maintenance.
