At least 45 people, including a dozen minors, were killed after a bus caught fire south of the Bulgarian capital early Tuesday morning, officials said. A cause has yet to be determined but officials believe a fire broke out on board and the bus crashed into guardrails. There were no other vehicles involved in the accident, which occurred around 2am (midnight GMT) on a highway about 40 kilometres (26 miles) from Sofia, near the village of Bosnek. "Of the victims ... 12 in total were under the age of 18," national police chief Stanimir Stanev said. He told bTV television that 45 of the 52 people on the bus were killed.
