Danish children survive bus accident in Croatia
Zagreb - Some 60 Danish students escaped serious injury Wednesday morning when their bus overturned in western Croatia, local media said.
The passengers, mostly children aged 14-15, were travelling from Randers in Denmark to Porec, an Adriatic coast resort where Denmark plays Egypt Wednesday night at the world handball championship.
Nine passengers were taken to a hospital with slight injuries, while the rest were catered for in a youth centre in Pula, 150 kilometres west of Zagreb.
Local reports quoted the Danish driver as saying that he swerved hard to avoid a collision with another bus. (dpa)
