A bus overturned on a highway in Croatia on Sunday, killing at least two people and injuring several others, according to police. The vehicle, which had Serbian license plates, veered off the road at 7:25 a.m. while traveling toward the Croatian capital, Zagreb. The cause of the accident is not yet clear.
Emergency services reported that 33 passengers and two drivers were aboard the bus when it crashed. Approximately 20 individuals sustained injuries, some of them serious, Dario Kezeric, commander of the Zagreb county firefighters, told the state broadcaster HRT.
Images from the scene published by local media depicted a damaged road fence and the bus lying on its side beside the road. A helicopter was also dispatched to the location, according to the HRT report. The A3 highway connects the Serbian border to Zagreb and continues toward Slovenia.
