Police in China's Hebei Province were shocked to find a passenger van packed to the brim with 66 young children.
The Telegraph reports that the group of 4 and 5-year-olds had been crammed into the van normally designed for eight people.
Police stopped the van when they suspected it was overloaded only to find the van's seats had been ripped out, and the nearly 70 children were sitting on wooden benches.
Reports of what happened to the van's driver vary.
According to the BBC, the driver was arrested. The Daily Mail reports the man was only given a series of tickets for the driving infraction.
The children, who were not hurt, were transported home in 12 police vans that came to pick them up from the side of the road.
