At least 27 people died and 16 others were injured when a bus carrying domestic tourists crashed on the Indonesian island of Java, police said on Saturday. Most of the passengers, who were on their way to a hot spring, were from South Tangerang in Java’s Banten province. All victims have been evacuated from the bus and most have been taken to a local hospital, officers said. “Our morgue is now at full capacity, we cannot accept more bodies,” Subang hospital spokesman Mamat Dudirakhmat told local broadcaster Metro TV. Transport accidents are common in Indonesia, where buses and trains are often old and badly maintained.
