http://www.hangingwithmay.com/bus-driver-on-wheel-suddenly-starts-foaming-at-the-mouth-bleeds-to-death-in-anambra-state-photos/
Quote: "A mysterious incident happened yesterday in Anambra state when a commuter driver bled to death, while conveying passengers from Ekwulobia to UNIZIK temporary site, Awka, the Anambra state capital. Passengers recall the deceased been very healthy, and lively, communicating with them during the journey. However, on reaching By-Pass junction, along Enugu Agidi road, Amawbia, he started bleeding from the mouth and nose, with white mucous and foams coming out from his mouth, loosing control of the steering wheel."
Note: Warning - somewhat gruesome images. Looks similar to the two men, lawyers, who foamed at the mouth and died in a running car in late 2013 in Asaba (Nigeria), mentioned in the 2013-12-12 update...
