This is the scene of a deadly accident in Thailand.

Four Swedish tourists and their Thai driver were killed in this road crash near the popular resort of Phuket.

Local media reported that a truck crossed the road's central divider, and then hit the car which was travelling in the opposite direction.

Police are looking for the driver of the truck, who fled the scene of the crash.

The Swedish victims were all in their early twenties.

Sweden's embassy in Bangkok confirmed the deaths, and said it would help the families repatriate the bodies.
