A tragic head-on collision between a truck and a van on Brazil’s BR-251 highway in Grão Mogol, Minas Gerais, left nine people dead and 12 injured. The van was carrying workers returning to Ceará when the crash occurred.
Preliminary findings from the Civil Police of Minas Gerais indicate the truck crossed into the opposite lane, triggering the fatal collision. Investigators say tire marks and other evidence on the roadway support the conclusion as authorities continue examining the cause of the crash.
