3 tourists die in Kenyan crash
Nairobi - Three Canadian tourists were killed in a road accident on their way to a Kenyan game park, police said on Tuesday. Their white safari car was headed to the northern Samburu reserve on Monday morning when a truck crashed into it, instantly killing two passengers. One died in hospital and three were sent to the Kenyan capital Nairobi for treatment. "It was a head-on collision with a lorry which was coming from the opposite direction. For unknown reasons, the lorry lost control. We are investigating the incident," said Philip Ndwiga, the deputy police commissioner. A Japanese national and a Briton were also in the car and are in hospital. Ndwiga said the respective embassies had been notified of the crash. Scores of people die on Kenya's ubiquitous pot-holed roads each year, which often involve speeding mini-buses that act as public transport.
