Three German skiers were found dead overnight and a fourth is missing after they were swept away in an avalanche near the Austrian ski resort of Lech am Arlberg, police said on Sunday, Jan. 13. Herrmann Fercher, leader of the Mountain Rescue Team, said they had had to stop the search as the weather conditions had made it too dangerous, but hoped they would be able to go on on Wednesday.
