44 killed, 11 injured in Tibet tourist bus accident
Lhasa, Aug 10 (IBNS): At least 44 people were killed and 11 others were injured after a tourist bus fell into a valley following a three-vehicle pile-up on Saturday in southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, media reports said.
"The 55-seat bus carrying 50 people fell off a 10-meter-plus-high cliff after crashing into a sports utility vehicle and a pick-up truck at about 4:25 p.m. Saturday on the No. 318 National Highway in Nyemo County," China's state News agency Xinhua reported.
The passengers in the bus were reportedly tourists from regions including Anhui, Shanghai, Shandong and Hebei.
The bus hit a sports utility vehicle (SUV) carrying four people.
During the accident one person was in the truck.
The injured are being treated at several hospitals in Lhasa.
A probe into the cause of the accident is under way.
