A bus collided with a truck in northeastern Colombia on Saturday, killing six and injuring another six, police said.

The mishap occurred near Cucuta, capital of Colombia's North Santander province, when a truck veered into the opposite lane and collided head-on with a bus.

This has been the second major road accident in the South American country in less than a week. On Tuesday, at least 30 people were killed when an overloaded bus plunged off a cliff in the northwestern province of Choco, Xinhua reported.
