About six people traveling on a white Mercedes-Benz Sprinter bus loaded with 33 passengers and crew, which includes young children, have died from a ghastly crash at Gomoa Mpota Junction in the Central Region on the Winneba – Accra road.
The deceased comprised three males and three females.
All six, according to reports, were passengers on the commercial bus which was heading to Mankessim from Accra when the accident occurred between it and a white private Toyota Corolla with registration number CR 416 — 17, which had two passengers on board and was heading to Accra from Winneba.
The bodies of the deceased, as well as the survivors, were taken to the Winneba Trauma Hospital.
The cause of the accident is not too clear yet but eyewitnesses say it involved the bursting of a tyre of the bus.
