Eleven teachers of a private elementary school were killed in a road accident in Thailand, the Thai Rath daily newspaper reports.
Fourteen school staff were returning to Bangkok on Friday night from Rayong Province when the tire of the minibus they were in burst and the driver lost control. The minibus overturned and caught on fire.

Only four women, including the driver who was a staff member of the school administration, survived the accident. They were able to get out of the minibus after breaking the window glass just when the fire was starting.

The survivors have been taken to the hospital in Chonburi Province, where the accident took place.
