Police also said the driver took inappropriate actions to slow down the truck on a crooked and slope road.

All the injured have been taken to nearby hospitals. Of them, seven, who suffered from more severe injuries, have been admitted to a better hospital, the Tangshan No. 2 Hospital.

The seven, aged between 3 and 59, are recovering from their fractures and scratches, doctor Zhang Shuyan said.
