At least 15 killed in passenger bus crash on Indonesia’s Java island

At least 15 people were killed when a passenger bus crashed on Indonesia’s main island of Java early Monday, according to officials.

The bus, which was carrying 34 passengers, lost control on a toll road shortly after midnight, slammed into a concrete barrier and overturned, said Budiono, a chief of the country’s search and rescue agency.

The inter-provincial bus was en route from the capital Jakarta to the historic city of Yogyakarta at the time of the accident.

Authorities are investigating the cause of the crash.
