A crash involving two buses in Bolivia killed at least 37 people and injured dozens early Saturday in the western Potosí region, according to police and local authorities. The accident occurred on the Uyuni-Colchani route when one bus veered into the oncoming lane.
At least 39 injured passengers were taken to four hospitals in Uyuni, according to the Potosí Departmental Police Command. Authorities are working to identify both the deceased and those hospitalized.
At the crash site, emergency crews used a crane to lift one of the overturned buses while police worked to recover bodies from the wreckage.
According to Bolivia’s Ministry of Government, the preliminary investigation suggests that one of the buses crossed into the opposite lane, likely due to speeding, causing the collision.
Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances of the crash.
