Ten killed in Mexico crash

Ten people have been killed and 18 others injured in the southern Mexican state of Chiapas after a passenger bus plunged into a ravine.

The accident occurred in wet conditions when the bus swerved to avoid a sports utility vehicle which skidded into its path.

The vehicle is thought to belong to the office of the Mexican government's peace commissioner in Chiapas, Luis Alvarez.
