CHENGDU, March 6 -- A minibus fell into a river in southwest China's Sichuan Province on Thursday, killing six people on board, local authorities said.

The minibus hit the fence of a bridge in Yilong County of Nanchong City and fell into the river. Six passengers died in the accident, the driver was rescued.

Search and rescue is still going on as it is believed that a seventh passenger is missing.

Authorities said the depth of the river, 14 meters, and the water's cold temperature have made rescue difficult.
