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 meters (2625 ft) off a precipice in the southwestern municipality of Yocalla, a police officer speaking from the local hospital said.
Of those injured in the crash, 10 adults and four children had been hospitalised, with several in intensive care, an official from the hospital said in a video.
Bolivia has infamously dangerous roads, particularly in mountainous areas, which can be winding and narrow.
The accident happened between the cities of Potosí and Oruro, police 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.
The incident is thought to be the most serious road accident in the South American country so far this year.
Local media reported that several of those injured are in a serious condition.
It comes after another deadly incident last month when a bus came off a road also near Potosí, killing 19 people.
