An unconfirmed number of passengers were injured Wednesday morning in Kisii after the driver of the bus lost control and veered off the road and plunged into a river in Masosa area, a suburb in the County capital
A pedestrian was, however, killed when it slid off the tarmac and hit him.
The injured are being attended to in various hospitals where they have been rushed to for emergency treatment.
The Modern Coast bus was en route to Homa Bay from Mombasa according to preliminary information.
The accident comes months after NTSA suspended the Modern Coast licence following the Nithi River accident.
The accident left 33 people dead.
NTSA as a result grounded 31 fleets of Modern Coast buses pending a probe into the accident.
"A thorough multi-agency investigation into the crash and an evaluation of the operator's safety operational standards is currently underway," NTSA said
"We condole with the families of those who lost their loved ones in this tragic crash and wish a quick recovery to those undergoing treatment."
It is not clear yet when the license was revoked.
