Carnival floats Parade.. Section III



SORRY,  CARNIVAL CELEBRATIONS  CANCELLED
DUE TO THE MAJOR TRAGEDY AT ALDONA

Bus plunged into the river, at least 7 dead including school kids

Check this video (from Archive)
A bus and  the ferry ramp is shown, where ill-fated bus  straight went into the river where there was no ferry docked at the time.

Some local sources say, the bus break failed while trying to negotiating turn

Of the dead, there were two sisters, their mother picked them up from the school and put them on the bus and left to pick up  her son.
