Six people were killed and at least 20 injured when a bus fell into a ravine in the Panamanian province of Chiriqui near the border with Costa Rica, officials said today.
Panama's national fire and rescue department disclosed details about the accident on Twitter including a picture showing the wrecked vehicle upside down in the river bed, surrounded by rescue workers.
The accident occurred about an hour after the bus, en route to the Panamanian town of David, departed the town of Puerto Armuelles.
