Just briefly heard on 1010 WINS that there has been a serious bus accident just outside Buffalo; according to reports, there were also a number of children on board.

Sadly, multiple fatalities have been reported.

My sympathies and prayers go out to all involved......

Continued:

The bus involved was chartered in New York, and was heading back to the city from Niagara Falls on Interstate 90; this was a rollover incident.........

Further:

One news report states:

Serious damage to the bus; a number of passengers were/are trapped beneath the wreckage.......

Also:

As of now, the name of the company owning the wrecked bus has not yet been released............truly a great tragedy (reports state that most passengers were not wearing seatbelts).......

Saturday:

No new developments in this tragic accident; all I know is that the driver is cooperating with authorities, to determine just why/how he lost control of the coach........
