School bus crash kills 4 students
Fortunately we live within walking distance of school, because we admittedly have a overly active imagination which leads to paranoia about sticking our kid on a school bus for a lengthy ride. And a tragic story like this one from Cottonwood, Minnesota doesn’t help that one bit (even though the bus driver does not appear to be at fault):
A school bus and several other vehicles crashed in southwestern Minnesota on Tuesday, killing four students and injuring more than a dozen others, authorities said.
The bus was hit by a van around 3:25 p.m. on a highway south of Cottonwood. The bus then hit a pickup and tipped on its side, State Patrol Lt. Mark Peterson said.
At least 14 people were hurt. Thirteen students were treated at nearby hospitals.
News of the crash swept through Cottonwood, a small town of about 1,000 people about 121 miles southwest of Minneapolis.
