JAKARTA - At least eight people were killed after an SUV driven by a kindergarten (TK) headmaster lost control and plunged into a pond in southeast China.
The People's Daily Press, a state-run media, quoted AFP on Wednesday, December 24, reporting that the incident occurred in Pengze County, a rural area 480 kilometers (300 miles) west of Shanghai, which is filled with trenches and streams.
The accident on Tuesday afternoon, December 23, was precisely at a location where the road was downhill and suspected of being slippery due to recent rain.
The seven-seater SUV is usually used for the shuttle of children at private kindergartens in the area.
"Several children from the kindergarten were in the vehicle at the time of the accident," the report quoted local officials as saying.
Last night, Pengze security authorities said the accident killed eight people, including a 49-year-old female driver.
However, the authorities did not detail the details of the dead for the reason that the investigation is ongoing.
