At least 30 people have died and more are injured in Guatemala City after a bus travelling on a busy highway fell off a bridge, a spokesperson for the city’s fire department says.
The bus was travelling a busy route in and out of the city when it fell from Puente Belice, a highway bridge that crosses over a road and creek.
Images shared by the fire department on social media showed the bus partially submerged in a water surrounded by victims’ bodies.
On social media, Guatemala City Mayor Ricardo Quinonez said that emergency services had been deployed while traffic police worked on establishing alternate routes in the affected area.
