At least 15 individuals lost their lives in a horrific accident on Thursday in Manitoba, Canada. A bus carrying elderly passengers collided with a truck at an intersection near Carberry, 170 kilometers west of Winnipeg.
The bus passengers were en route to a casino in Carberry. Deputy Police Officer Rob Hill, commander of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Manitoba, confirmed that “at least 15 individuals were pronounced dead as a result of the collision.”
Ten other individuals are receiving medical care at the hospital. Both drivers survived, but the police have not disclosed who was responsible for the accident. Images from the scene showed wheelchair seats and walking frames destroyed near the tarpaulins covering the bodies.
