A tourist coach crashed into a tree in Surrey, Southeast England on Monday night, causing three people dead and 50 injured, local media reported on Tuesday.

The vehicle veered off the road and hit a tree on an embankment of the northbound side of the A3 at 11:50 p.m. local time (2250 GMT), Sky news reported, quoting a spokesman for the emergency service on the scene.

The injured passengers have been sent to several hospitals for treatment, while service personnel are still recovering bodies trapped in the coach.

The cause of the crash was put under investigation, while the spokesman said the road was dry and the road condition should not have caused the crash.
