The accident happened in Malinalco in the southern region of
Mexico state, which surrounds the capital on three sides, when a
bus traveling from San Luis de la Paz, in Guanajuato State in
central Mexico, to the Chalma sanctuary south of Mexico City,
overturned on the highway.
Fourteen people were killed instantly, while another four died
later in hospital, according to the state of Mexico's secretary
of security.
Local media circulated images of people providing water and
blankets to the relatives of crash victims. The state
prosecutors' offices of Mexico and Guanajuato said they were
assisting the bereaved families.
