Rescuers called off their search on Friday after pulling 32 bodies from the wreckage of a Mexican passenger bus buried when a rain-soaked mountainside gave way. Officials initially speculated as many as 60 people were aboard the bus when it was engulfed by tons of rock and earth as it travelled on a twisting rural road early on Wednesday.
The side of a sodden mountain collapsed on a bus carrying up to 60 passengers along a remote Mexican road on Wednesday and hours later rescuers could only pull a woman’s corpse from the debris. Local rescuers said those on board were probably killed but the government held out hope for survivors.
