Epe Berger bridge disaster: Truck, 3 bodies recovered

Three bodies and the six tire Volvo truck which plunged into the Epe River late Friday night were yesterday, recovered.

The Volvo truck fell off the Berger bridge at Epe into the Epe River after it collided with a truck and was only retrieved about 1 pm yesterday afternoon.

Three adult males were also recovered along with Volvo truck loaded with sand. 

Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA) disclosed that operation was suspended on Friday midnight to resume yesterday, which also necessitated a change of mode of operation from Search and Rescue to Search and Recovery due to time-lapse in the window period known as the “Golden Hour”.
