THESSALONIKI, Greece — A speeding car carrying migrants collided with a truck in northern Greece on Saturday, killing 11 people, police said. Ten of the victims were believed to be migrants who crossed into the Greece from Turkey. The truck driver, a 39-year-old Greek man, was treated for minor injuries in a hospital in northern Greece before being discharged. The truck driver tried to swerve at the last moment, but couldn’t avoid the collision. The car wasn’t travelling on the highway connecting Thessaloniki to the Turkish border but on an older road, because there are more police roadblocks on the highway.
