At least 54 are Killed and Dozens Injured after Mexican container truck packed with 200 US-bound migrants flips 'because it was going too fast' and slammed into a bridge
Dozens of bodies arranged in rows covered in white sheets were photographed laid across a roadway in the southern Mexican state of Chiapas On Thursday. At least 54 further people were wounded, 21 seriously, in the horror smash.
As many as 200 migrants were packed in a cargo truck used to transport perishable goods that rolled over and crashed into a pedestrian bridge over a highway, causing dozens of deaths and serious injuries.
The trailer broke open and spilled out migrants when the truck crashed on a sharp curve outside the city of Tuxtla Gutierrez in the state of Chiapas, according to video footage of the aftermath and civil protection authorities.
The deceased were believed to be Central American migrants, some from Guatemala and Honduras, who were packed in a cargo truck
