OUAGADOUGOU, Nov 15 (Reuters) - At least 41 people were killed and many others seriously injured when a bus collided with a truck 200 km (125 miles) west of Burkina Faso's capital on Saturday, public prosecutor Boromo Maiza Compaore said. The bus was carrying at least 75 people to San Pedro, a port city in neighbouring Ivory Coast, when it crashed near Ouahabou, he said. "Corpses are littering the road. Many are still trapped in the wreckage of the bus and emergency services have to saw through the metal to get them out," state radio in the west African country quoted him as saying. The vehicles caught fire after colliding, witnesses said. An investigation into the causes of the crash has begun.
