"A woman who fell from the first-floor balcony of the Grand Théâtre in Geneva faces surgery on Tuesday to deal with her injuries. A few minutes before a performance of Bellini’s opera I Puritani, the spectator was leaning on a barrier when it collapsed beneath her. Voluntary firefighters in the audience, trained in first aid, immediately rushed to help her." [Source]
