chute d’un bus dans une rivière à saint-pétersbourg : le bilan grimpe à sept morts

Sept personnes ont été tuées vendredi quand un bus transportant une vingtaine de passagers a chuté par accident dans une rivière au coeur de Saint-Pétersbourg, la deuxième ville de Russie, selon un nouveau bilan des autorités.

«Ã‚ Le nombre de personnes décédées à la suite de la chute d’un autobus dans la rivière Moyka est passé à sept », a déclaré vendredi soir le comité d’enquête russe, indiquant qu’une enquête criminelle avait été ouverte.

Le ministère russe des Situations d’urgence avait fait état auparavant de trois morts, quatre personnes « en état de mort clinique » et deux blessés graves, mentionnant, sur Telegram, un « accident de la route ».

Selon le ministère, les opérations de sauvetage en plongée étaient terminées en milieu d’après-midi, des spécialistes fixant des sangles pour hisser le véhicule hors de l’eau.

Selon la police locale, le bus a percuté la barrière d’un pont au-dessus de la rivière Moïka, dans le centre de Saint-Pétersbourg, alors qu’environ 20 personnes étaient à son bord.

Des images de vidéosurveillance, diffusées par plusieurs médias russes, montrent le véhicule effectuer un virage, percuter une voiture, puis foncer sur la barrière du pont et ensuite couler à pic en quelques secondes.
