MANILA, Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- Two people were killed and five others injured after a refrigerated truck carrying frozen fish collided with a van and a motorcycle before plunging into a deep ravine in Bukidnon province in the southern Philippines, police said Tuesday.
Police said the accident happened on Monday along a highway in Quezon town.
Investigation showed the refrigerated truck driver lost control of the vehicle after its brake failed while navigating a steep, downhill stretch of the road.
The truck then collided with a motorcycle and a van, causing all three vehicles to roll over several times before plunging into a roadside ravine, the police said. ■
