Four persons were wounded when their six-wheeler truck fell into a ravine in Barangay Maasin, 13 kilometers west of this city on Tuesday afternoon, a police official said.

Police Station 8 commander Sr. Insp. Arthur Alejandro identified the victims as truck driver Carlito Ebol; Boy Suarez, Rene Brillantes and Nilo Bariga, all truck helpers.

Alejandro said the truck overturned after crashing on the road railings and fell into the ravine.

The driver lost control of the truck’s steering wheel after it malfunctioned while they were on the way to deliver chicken feed to a poultry farm in the village of Pamucutan, 23 kilometers west of this city, Alejandro said.
