At least 11 dead in deadly road accident in Brazil

At least 11 people have been killed and another three seriously injured after a minibus hit a truck in Mimoso do Sul on Sunday afternoon.

The accident took place when a truck loaded with granite slabs lost control and hit the minibus, which was coming from the opposite direction. The bus caught fire shortly after the collision.

All of the victims were members of a dance group from Domingos Martins who had just finished a performance at the 23rd German Festival.
