At least nine motorists have been injured in a car crash due to a tire blowout in Quezon province, southeast of Manila, police said.
Police said one of the passenger van's rear tires burst while traveling on a highway in Atimonan town before 5pm local time on Monday.
The driver lost control of the vehicle, causing it to crash into the gutter on the roadside, roll down a hill, and tilt on its side. One of the passengers was thrown off the vehicle and onto the pavement.
Rescuers rushed the injured passengers to a local hospital for treatment.
