Swiss coach crash: Belgium schools in mourning

Floral tributes also lined the entrance to the Stekske School in Lommel, east
of Antwerp.

Belgian police say 21 of those killed were Belgian and seven were Dutch.
Twenty-four other children were hurt.

Meanwhile, police in Switzerland
say families of some of the victims are being taken to the morgue to
identify the bodies.

A police spokesperson said that where possible the bodies will be shown to the
families on Thursday with Belgium
preparing to repatriate all those killed and injured.

Olivier Elsig, prosecutor for the Swiss state of Valais, said officials were
looking at three possible causes – a technical problem with the bus, a
health problem with the driver or human error.

He said an autopsy would be performed on the driver.
