“So far, eight people are reported dead, including three males, four females, and one minor,” the Prosecutor’s Office said in a statement. “27 injured people are being treated in nearby hospitals.”
“The Government of Veracruz, in coordination with federal agencies and the state prosecutor’s office, is attending to passengers and relatives affected by the unfortunate accident on the Perote-Xalapa highway,” said Veracruz Governor Rocío Nahle. “We are providing all the necessary support.”
The cause of the accident has not yet been determined, nor has responsibility been established. The condition of the injured is unknown.
