ISABELA CITY - At least a dozen students were admitted to the Basilan Community Hospital here Monday afternoon after they fell off a truck while on their way home in Lantawan town.
The victims, all students of the Concepcion National High School, said they were on their way home after attending classes when they decided to hitch a ride on a passing cargo truck in Barangay Matarling.
A report filed by the Isabela City Police Station identified the truck's driver as Saher Lahaman, 36.
The report showed that the truck, with plate number XLZ-454 and being used to carry
dried copra, was on its way to the town of Maluso.
Those admitted to the hospital were Albasir Kandiling, 13, Rhudzni Sadidol, 14,
Reynalin Kandiling, 14, Rohelmina Duyani, 14, Marjon Enohara, 14, Alsuhud Mama, 15, Sadidul Anisa, 16, Aimalyn Amisara, 16, Raymond Mendoza, 17, Musaddikan, 17, Landasan Naing, 17 and Allan Agustin, 36.
The victims sustained bruises and contusions on their faces and different parts of their bodies.
Mendoza said the truck, which did not have any cargo at that time, was crammed with nearly 60 students.
Police quoted the truck's driver as saying that while he was negotiating a steep curve in Barangay Matarling, one of the panel walls of the vehicle's cargo bed collapsed, causing some of the students to fall off.
The students said that they are grateful to the truck's yet unidentified owner for shouldering their medical expenses, despite the fact that they insisted on hitching a ride on the vehicle.
