KHUZDAR: Seven people, including two women, were killed and 12 others injured when a coach fell into a ditch in the Luk-Pass area of district Mastung late on Saturday night.

According to the Levies Force, the coach was going from Quetta to Karachi.

Rescue workers and security forces took the bodies and the injured to Civil Hospital, Quetta.

Two of the injured were shifted to the trauma centre of the hospital in critical condition.

“An emergency was declared in the hospital after the accident,” Dr Rehman, duty in charge of the trauma centre, said.

On Jan 31, three people lost their lives after a car collided with a passenger coach in the same area.
