NAIROBI - At least 10 people died and 30 were injured in a collision between a bus and a truck in central Kenya Sunday, a television report said.

Broadcaster KBC said the bus overturned several times after the collision near the town of Limuru.

A similar accident a week ago claimed seven lives.

Some 400 people died on Kenya’s roads last month, according to transport ministry statistics.

Human error and poor vehicle maintenance were blamed for most of the accidents.
