Two Japanese tourists killed in bus accident outside Paris

VERSAILLES, France - Two Japanese tourists were killed and a dozen others were injured Monday when their bus veered off a highway outside Paris and landed in a ditch, officials said.
It was not immediately clear why the bus, which was carrying a total of 15 tourists, left the A13 highway west of Paris. It plowed through a guardrail and landed on its right side in a ditch that was several meters (yards) deep.
