Bus Crash in Zacatecas Kills 19, Injures 6

A tragic accident in Zacatecas, Mexico, resulted in the deaths of 19 people and injuries to six others when a passenger bus collided with a detached trailer carrying corn. Initially, the death toll was reported as 24, but it was later revised by the state attorney general's office. The accident occurred on a highway when the bus, en route from Tepic to Ciudad Juarez, hit the trailer, causing it to swerve into a ravine. Rescue operations involved the Mexican army and National Guard as they worked to recover bodies and assist the injured. Authorities are investigating the incident to determine negligence and potential charges against the tractor-trailer driver. The crash highlights a broader issue of rising traffic accidents in Mexico, with over 381,000 reported last year.
