A bus carrying schoolchildren on a pilgrimage collided with a truck in eastern Poland on Friday, killing at least 11 people and injuring dozens, the fire brigade said, according to Reuters. "A bus carrying high-school students collided head-on with a truck, spun across the road and caught fire," said Jacek Dobrzynski, a spokesman for the fire brigade in the eastern city of Bialystok. "The bus was completely burned and people were running away in flames. So far we have 11 dead and several dozen injured," he said by telephone from the site of the accident. He said there were nearly 60 people on the bus, most of them students. The injured were taken to hospitals in Bialystok and nearby towns. The cause of the accident was not immediately known.
