Runaway truck kills five people attending a funeral

Five people were killed and 25 injured after a truck rammed into a group of people attending a funeral in Kahramanmaras province, southeastern Turkey, on Saturday.

According to local press, the truck’s brakes failed, causing it to go at full speed and out of control on a road leading to a cemetery where dozens of people were gathered for a funeral.


“At this stage, there are five dead and 25 injured. Some of the injured are at risk of death,” provincial governor Mukerrem Unluer said.

Footage from Turkey’s DHA office showed a truck lying upside down next to a crushed white car.
