 At Least 30 Killed in Peru Bus Mishap
 Lima - At least 30 people were killed and over 20 injured in a bus accident early Saturday in Peru's northwestern province of Cajamarca, police said.

The tragedy occurred when the bus, with around 60 passengers onboard, swerved off the road and fell off a nearby cliff.

Rescuers have retrieved the bodies of the 30 victims, including those of six children.

Initial investigation showed that harsh weather conditions and overloading may have caused the accident.
