Fourteen killed as lorry crashes with minibus in Hungary


A lorry and minibus, both from Romania, have collided in south-eastern Hungary, killing all but one of the 15 people aboard the bus.


12:01PM GMT 31 Oct 2011

The accident happened on Sunday just before midnight on the M43 motorway between the Hungarian towns of Szeged and Mako, near the Romanian-Hungarian border, police said in a statement.

Initial police reports claimed that the lorry, which was heading from the border towards Szeged, broke through a barrier for unknown reasons, turned on its side and crashed into the minibus which was heading towards Mako.

Three children were among the the dead. Only one passenger on the bus survived and was left in a critical condition.

The driver of the lorry also survived the accident with serious injuries and is in hospital in Szeged, police said.
