LA PAZ (AGENCIES)

A bus crash in Bolivia on Monday killed at least 31 people and wounded over a dozen more, according to local police.

The driver of the bus likely lost control of the vehicle, causing it to drop nearly 800 metres off a precipice in the southwestern municipality of Yocalla, a police officer speaking from the local hospital said.

The mountainous route is full of twists and turns, the police officer said, adding that the bus' speed could have been a factor in the crash.
