The spokesperson for the Traffic and Road Safety Department of the Rwanda National Police (RNP), SSP Rene\u0301 Irere, told The New Times that the accident happened at around 10:30 am at Kamembe bus park in Rusizi district.<\/p>\n

Irere said the bus driver, Emmanuel Niyonsenga, had parked the vehicle in a steep area. It slipped and ran into the road, knocking and injuring a motorist by the name of Damas Byiringiro, before it plunged into a valley. Two people who were on board also suffered injuries.<\/p>\n

According to reports by Rusizi FM, a community radio in the region, the vehicle had been parked near a cliff as the driver waited for more commuters to come in when, all of a sudden, it veered off the road.<\/p>\n

All the three injured people, Irere said, were taken to Gihundwe Hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n

No fatalities have been reported.<\/p>\n
