Ten people were killed in a bus accident in east China’s Jiangxi Province, China’s public security authority said on Tuesday.

The accident occurred at about 10:30 a.m. when an overloaded medium-sized bus carrying 31 people spun out of the road and fell into a 10-meter deep ditch in Ningdu County. Nine passengers died at the scene while the tenth died in the hospital.

A special workgroup has been sent to deal with the aftermath, and an investigation is ongoing.
