A 64-year-old woman died while 10 others were injured after the passenger van they were riding figured in an accident in Baungon, Bukidnon.

Police said the van was travelling to Cagayan de Oro. The driver allegedly tried to overtake when the right front wheel reportedly exploded and the vehicle overturned.

“Ni-action kini siya ug maneuver para mo-overtake then pagbalik niya sa iyang linya nibuto ang iyang right side front wheel sa maong van ug nibunggo kini siya sa usa ka high ground nga miresulta sa pagkabalintong sa van,” Police Regional Office-Northern Mindanao (PRO-10) Spokesperson, Major Joann Navarro, said.

The woman died on the spot due to severe injuries in the body while the other 10 passengers were brought to the hospital, including the driver.

The driver, operator, family of the woman who died and other injured passengers have reportedly reached an agreement.

Authorities remind motorists to check the condition of the vehicle to avoid accidents.

“It should be road worthy daghan na mga insidente nga nibuto ang ligid nga miresulta gyud sa aksidente sa atong mga Driver be vigilant at all times,” Navarro added.
