Dominic Ethan Stewart was among 19 killed when vehicle veered off road and plunged down mountainside
Tributes have been paid to a young British hiker who was among 19 people killed when a packed passenger bus veered off a treacherous stretch of road and plunged 200 metres down a steep mountainside in Nepal.
Twenty-five others were injured in the pre-dawn crash in the Himalayan foothills on Monday. The bus was carrying 44 people, including a number of tourists.
Dominic Ethan Stewart’s family said he was a “very loving and caring young man who was happiest trekking”. Stewart would have turned 24 next month, ITV reported.
Stewart, from Exeter, was an enthusiastic hiker who had just completed the Annapurna Circuit, a gruelling high-altitude trek in the Himalayas.
