At least 15 people tragically lost their lives in a devastating accident on Thursday in Manitoba, Canada.
The incident occurred when a bus carrying elderly passengers collided with a truck at an intersection near Carberry, about 170 kilometers west of Winnipeg.
The passengers were on their way to a casino in Carberry. Rob Hill, the Deputy Police Officer and commander of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Manitoba, confirmed the fatalities, stating, “At least 15 individuals were pronounced dead as a result of the collision.”
An additional ten people are receiving medical treatment at the hospital. Both drivers survived the crash, but authorities have yet to determine who was at fault. Harrowing images from the scene showed destroyed wheelchairs and walkers near tarps covering the victims’ bodies.
