SOFIA (Reuters) - Six people were killed and at least 20 others including a child were injured when a bus overturned on a highway near the Bulgarian capital, the health ministry said on Friday. Ambulances ferried 19 people to Sofia hospitals and two were in critical condition after the crash some 28 km (17 miles) east of Sofia, national radio reported. The bus, which was serving a regular route between Sofia and the Black Sea city of Burgas, was hit sideways by a car and flipped over, trapping many passengers inside, president of the Union Ivkoni bus company Georgy Atanasov told public BNR radio.
