13 Die In Horrific California Tour Bus Crash


Story out of Palm Springs, California:

A tour bus returning from a casino slammed into the rear of a tractor-trailer on Sunday near Palm Springs, California, killing 13 people and injuring 31 others, according to state police.

The bus driver was among those killed and the truck driver was injured, California Highway Patrol division Chief Jim Abele said at a press conference. Injuries range from minor to moderate, he said.

"The speed of the bus was so significant that when it hit the back of the big rig... the trailer itself entered about 15 feet into the bus," Abele added.

Survivors said most passengers were asleep, Abele said. The victims were found in their seats and he believes most of the dead were sitting in the front of the bus, Abele said. Cont. (Video/Autoplay)
