Tragedy on Brug – Bus in Guatemala Fell in Gorge – 50 Dead

Date:

At least 51 people died in a bus accident in Guatemala. The coach fell about 20 meters from a bridge in Guatemala City. Why the accident occurred was initially unclear.

Soldiers, soldiers and rescue workers were deployed. The dead are 36 men and 15 women, said the spokesperson for the local fire brigade Carlos González. At least five people were saved and taken to hospitals.

The coach traveled from the municipality of San Agustín Acasaguastlán to the city of Guatemala, which was about 90 kilometers southwest. For inexplicable reasons, the driver is said to have lost control of the bus, which fell about 20 meters from a bridge to a Blackwater River.

The President of the Middle -American country, Bernardo Arévalo, led the families of the victims and called state subsidies. “The tragedy on the Belice Bridge is a national pain that I was deeply regretted,” said Arévalo.
