Scores Killed in Indian Accident

As they were traveling in a lorry, it plunged down a gorge in India. At least 85 Hindu pilgrims have died and some 60 people were injured. The driver lost control of the lorry at a sharp bend in the western state of Rajasthan according to the Police. The vehicle was carrying at least 150 people when it plowed through a protective concrete barrier and plunged 80 ft. Rescuers using cranes and searchlights recovered the deal overnight. This was certainly a terrible accident.
