Fifty-five people were killed when their bus left the road, rolled down a slope and crashed in western Kenya, an official said Wednesday, with the roof of the bus ripped off.
"The information we have is that the driver lost control," Kericho County police commander James Mugera told The Associated Press.
"I felt the bus swerve from one side to the other and then I found myself in the middle of nowhere," passenger Joseph Obonyo told the AP. "There was a body near me and people were being thrown out of the bus, flying out of it like airplanes, and where we were thrown that was it. ... I am only able to say that God saved me and I am truly thankful."
