Tire burst?
Dozens injured in bus accident in Spain
Dozens of people were injured in a serious bus accident in Spain on Monday. The bus crashed into a tunnel entrance on the highway between Barcelona and Tordera in the northeast of the country.
Pictures circulated online showed the bus hanging at an angle from the ceiling of the tunnel entrance. The emergency services announced via X (formerly Twitter) that a total of 52 people had received medical treatment.
Three people with life-threatening injuries were taken to hospital by helicopter and five others were also taken to hospital.
Accident caused by tire blowout?
According to the newspaper "La Vanguardia", the bus driver had apparently lost control of the vehicle due to a blown tire, which then began to lurch and was catapulted into the air by a safety barrier at the side of the road.
On board the bus were employees of the textile company Inditex, which owns brands such as Zara, Bershka and Massimo Dutti, on their way to an Inditex factory in the Catalan town of Tordera.
