A bus overturned and fell down a cliff at dawn Friday in central Cuba,
killing 5 people and injuring 50 others, official press reported.

A 7-year-old boy was among the dead of the accident which occurred on
the Central Highway at about 3:00 a.m. local time (900 GMT) in the Santa
Clara municipality of the Villa Clara Province.

The driver apparently lost control as the bus got out of the lane and
overturned, the official National Information Agency (AIN) reported.

Children between 2 and 12 years' old were among the injured and all of
them were in serious conditions and were being treated at the Santa
Clara Children Hospital.
