Ten people were killed and 13 injured when a minibus carrying female farm workers in Turkey rolled over and fell into a creek, police said.
The accident took place Wednesday afternoon in the Adiyaman province, authorities said, as the minibus was taking the farm workers home.
The driver, Kazim Coban, lost control of the vehicle when its tire blew, and the minibus rolled and fell into a creek 100 feet below the road, officials told Today's Zaman.
Six of the workers were killed at the scene, and the others were transported to a hospital, where four others died.
The bodies of the women were taken to the morgue for autopsies.
