Two Filipino killed, 8 injured in German bus crash

Two Filipinos were killed on Sunday when a coach carrying them to the Oktoberfest beer festival in southern Germany overturned on a motorway, police said. The accident, which occurred around 6 a.m. local time, left eight others seriously injured.

The coach, chartered by a travel company, was carrying a group of around 50 Filipino tourists to the Oktoberfest in Munich, a spokeswoman for the Upper Bavaria police prefecture told the media.

According to initial findings from the investigation, the vehicle left the road before overturning near Buchloe, in a region close to the Austrian border. It had departed from the town of Mailand. Significant emergency resources were deployed at the scene and the motorway was closed in both directions.
