Eight people have died and eight others were critically injured when a bus carrying farmworkers crashed in northern Florida, US, on Tuesday.
The workers were on their way to work at Cannon Farms in Dunnellon, a small farming community in Marion County, when the bus overturned about 8:30 a.m. on West State Road 40, according to local media outlet the Ocala Star Banner, which cited the Reuters news agency.
The Florida Highway Patrol, which is investigating the crash, said a total of 53 people were on the bus.
The other 37 passengers were taken to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, said James Lucas, a public information officer for Marion County Fire Rescue.
Cannon Farms, where the workers were headed, posted on Facebook about the crash. “We will be closed today out of respect for the loss and injuries sustained this morning in the accident,” the post read.
