A passenger bus traveling along Highway 57 near kilometer 68 in the Hermanas–Sabinas area overturned early Wednesday morning, killing at least one person and injuring several others. The bus, identified as unit 9132, was en route from Ciudad Acuña to Gómez Palacio, Durango, when it lost control and crashed.
Among the injured is a child named Jairo, who is in critical condition at IMSS Clinic 7 in Monclova. Doctors have described his state as delicate, and his family remains anxiously by his side. At least five other passengers were hurt, with injuries ranging in severity.
