                   Avalanche Kills 2 at Russia's Sochi Resort

   Russian emergency officials say two women have died in an avalanche at
   the Sochi ski resort, the site of the 2014 Winter Olympics and
   Paralympics.
   Authorities say there were six skiers Sunday on the Labyrinth run of
   the Rosa Khutor complex when the avalanche struck. Four of the skiers
   escaped unharmed.
   The resort says it has launched an investigation to determine the cause
   of the avalanche.
   The slopes had opened to the public Saturday, following the closing of
   the Paralympics last week.
