Three male adults have been killed in a fatal crash which involved a Toyota Hiace bus and a Mercedez Benz 911 truck along the Eleme-Oyigbo Road in Rivers State.

The crash was said to have occurred around 6.35am on Wednesday.

According to PUNCH, a resident, who identified himself as ThankGod, said the bus rammed into the stationary truck, which had developed a fault and was parked two days earlier.

“There was blood all over the road. I saw policemen attending to the victims and making phone calls probably to reach out to their families,” he stated.
