A tour bus transporting an Indiana college bowling team to a tournament in Tennessee flipped over and crashed on Interstate 65 in southern Indiana on Thursday, injuring at least 20 people.
The accident occurred Thursday morning in the southbound lane of the highway at mile marker 22, near Henryville in Clark County.
WDRB reports:
The Interstate was shut down as two medical helicopters responded to the scene of the crash, according to WLWT.
The extent of the injuries is not yet known. WHAS tweeted dramatic aerial shots of the rollover, as fire rescue teams responded.
The bus belongs to a company called Excursion Trailways, which has offices in Fort Wayne. The company has a clean record with the National Transportation Safety Board, according to the Courier-Journal.
A photo shared by WDRB shows the overturned bus with the front windshield totally smashed, and the hood of the vehicle torn off.
