ZAMBOANGA DEL SUR (Mindanao Examiner / May 24, 2012) – Three people were injured when a cargo truck ploughed into a river bank in Zamboanga del Sur province in the southern Philippines.
Rescuers said the truck was carrying animal feeds when it crashed early on Wednesday on a village near Tigbao town.
“It was an accident. The driver may have doused off and crashed his truck. Three people were injured in the accident,” a villager Dong Sebastian said.
A crane truck was sent later on Thursday to lift the ill-fated vehicle. The truck was delivering the feeds to its warehouse when the accident occurred. (Mindanao Examiner)
