A driver deliberately crashed a bus full of passengers into a reservoir in southwestern China, hours after discovering his house had been demolished, local police said Monday.
Twenty-one people died and 15 were injured on July 7 when the bus swerved across five lanes, smashed through a guard rail and partially sank, according to police in the city of Anshun, in Guizhou province.
According to police, Zhang normally began his shift at noon, but on July 7 he asked another driver if he could start earlier. Hours later, just before the crash, Zhang sent his girlfriend a voice message on popular messaging app WeChat, expressing "world-weary" feelings, according to the police.
