More than two dozen students were injured and at least one person was killed when a packed school bus collided with a semi-trailer truck in southern Pennsylvania on Wednesday, officials said.
At least one person was killed in the crash, Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Scott Kovach said.
Medical helicopters were transporting six students to hospitals, said Geraldine Budzina, a dispatcher with Somerset County 911.
Two other school buses were taking 22 students with less serious injuries to a hospital, she said.
As many as 70 students may have been on the school bus, she said.

@ jj, this thread is about school children dying in a bus accident. Show some compassion for petes sake! This has nothing to do with politics!
Yes Chrissy I predicted this response and happen to agree with me being on the wrong post as usual. Just raising eyebrows because I can. May the good lord be with all the families affected with this tragic event that unfolded today, truelly. Hi banz!
i disagree its about repeated bus accidents without the benefit of seat belts...empathy sympathy is just as cruel when accompanied by inaction...
