Twelve university students died and 21 were injured in a collision between a bus and a truck in Brazil’s southeastern state of Sao Paulo, officials said. “We wake up to the sad news of this tragedy that killed 12 students in a terrible accident involving a bus and a truck,” State Governor Tarcisio Freitas wrote on X on Friday. Sao Paulo civil defence authorities said in a statement that 21 injured people were taken to hospital after the crash late Thursday, but most were released.
