A serious accident occurred last night around midnight in Croatia, when a bus of a Kosovar company went off the road and ended up in a ditch and a grassy area on the A1 highway, near Donja Zdenčina. At the time of the accident, there were 28 people on the bus, 26 passengers and two drivers, who sent an urgent call for help, asking to be pulled out of the overturned bus.
Police, ambulance and Zagreb firefighters arrived at the scene immediately and, after a careful operation, removed all passengers from the bus through the driver's door. According to the Croatian newspaper Jutarnji List, two people suffered minor injuries in the accident.
The bus driver underwent an alcohol test according to standard procedures, while the reasons for losing control of the vehicle are still unknown.
The Kosovo company confirmed to the media that all passengers arrived at their destination safely and there were no injuries. They also added that, following the incident, Kosovo authorities are in contact with the Kosovo embassy in Croatia to follow further developments.
