SEVEN people, including four children, were killed when an overloaded van overturned on an expressway in east China's Zhejiang Province last night, traffic police said today.

The van hit a median barrier and overturned at 10:20pm yesterday on the G50 Expressway, leaving 7 people dead as of 8am today, according to traffic police from the Zhejiang Provincial Public Security Department.

An initial investigation showed that at least 12 passengers were riding in the 6-seat van when it overturned, police said.

A further investigation is under way.
