BUENOS-AIRES, June 2 (RIA Novosti) - At least 17 people died and 15 were injured when a bus lost control and hurtled into a 200-meter gorge in Bolivia, the national ABI news agency reported on Monday.
"A total of 17 bodies have been found at the site of the crash, and the search for three missing passengers is ongoing," the agency quoted traffic police chief Augusto Angulo as saying.
