Ottawa [Canada]: Four persons were killed and more than 50 others had to be admitted to hospitals in southern British Columbia after the bus they were travelling in rolled over on an icy highway on Christmas Eve, according to the provincial Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), reported CNN.
"We can confirm, tragically four passengers were found deceased," a news release from the BC Highway Patrol and RCMP said. Authorities have not identified the deceased. In a statement later Sunday, police said the exact number of passengers has yet to be confirmed and officers were in the process of locating and speaking to those who were on the bus, including the driver.
