SEOUL, November 19 (AJP) - Two more people have died from a deadly crash at an open-air market in Bucheon, Gyeonggi Province last week, bringing the death toll to four.

According to police on Wednesday, a man in his 20s and a woman in her 80s, who were seriously injured last Thursday when a pickup truck plowed through the market, died earlier this week.

Two women in their 60s and 70s died at the scene, and a number of injured people have since been receiving treatment.

The driver, a fish vendor in his 60s at the market, allegedly confused the accelerator with the brake, causing the truck to crash into stalls and shoppers.
