"It is a very sad time for those family members," Bian told Xinhua while waiting for them at the Las Vegas International Airport.

Six Chinese tourists were killed Friday when their tour bus overturned on US 93 highway in Arizona, nine others were injured in the crash. Among those injured tourists currently under treatment at two Las Vegas hospitals, two women, aged 35 and 41 respectively, are still in critical condition, while others are in fair or good condition, according to an official of the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco. Meanwhile, seven tourists of the Shanghai tour group, who did not participate in Friday's one-day trip to the Grand Canyon or suffered minor injuries in the accident, left Las Vegas Wednesday to return home. |
