Six people were confirmed to be dead yesterday in Ohio after a charter bus full of students was rear-ended by a semi-truck. The crash happened on I-70 as the student bus from Tuscarawas Valley High School was headed to a conference. Of those killed, three were adults and three were students, and 18 others were injured in the accident, including two commercial vehicle drivers and the driver of the bus.
All three of the teenagers killed were on the bus, while the three adults who lost their lives were inside a passenger vehicle that was one of three other vehicles involved in the crash. The National Transportation Safety Board has been called in to conduct an investigation into the crash.
