Tragic bus accident claims 7 lives and leaves 37 injured in US.

Tragedy struck in Mississippi on Saturday morning as a commercial bus overturned on Interstate 20, leaving seven people dead and dozens more injured. The Mississippi Highway Patrol reported that the accident occurred near Bovina in Warren County, when the bus, which was heading west, suddenly veered off the highway and overturned. According to a news release, six passengers were tragically pronounced dead at the scene, while another passed away at a nearby hospital.

The National Transportation Safety Board, taking to social media platform X, revealed that the crash was caused by a sudden tire failure. The investigation is still ongoing, and no other vehicles were involved in the accident. The bus was operated by Autobuses Regiomontanos, a company with 20 years of experience providing cross-border trips between Mexico and the US. Their website boasts of a modern fleet of buses that undergo daily maintenance, and even offers special discounted trips for workers.

When contacted by phone, a woman at the company's Laredo, Texas office confirmed that they were aware of the crash but declined to provide any further information or reveal her name. Tragically, among the victims were a six-year-old boy and his 16-year-old sister, as confirmed by Warren County Coroner Doug Huskey. The mother of the two children identified them, and authorities are working to identify the other victims. Thirty-seven passengers were transported to hospitals in Vicksburg and Jackson for treatment.

The identities of the deceased have not yet been released by the authorities, who are still investigating the cause of the accident. The community is in shock and mourning the loss of these innocent lives. Meanwhile, in other parts of the country, wild weather wreaks havoc, uprooting trees and flooding streets in Tasmania. It serves as a reminder of the unpredictable forces of nature and the importance of safety precautions while traveling. Our hearts go out to the families and loved ones of those affected by this tragic accident.
