10 killed in Mexico road crash

As many as 16 people were killed and four injured in two separate road accidents in Mexico Thursday.

At least 10 people were killed and four injured in a collision between a bus and fuel truck in Mexican state of Tabasco, authorities said.

The crash took place late Thursday on a highway linking Villahermosa, Tabasco’s capital, with Ciudad del Carmen in neighbouring Campeche state, a government official official Cesar Raul Ojeda said on Twitter.

Six people died earlier Thursday when a truck carrying chickens hit a bus on the Fresnillo-Cuencame highway in Durango state.
