Mississippi:
Seven people, including a 6-year-old and a 16-year-old, were killed early Saturday when a bus overturned east of Vicksburg, Mississippi, Warren County Coroner Doug Huskey said.
The coroner said the two young victims were siblings.
The Mississippi Highway Patrol said the incident occurred around 12:40 a.m. on Interstate 20 near Bovina in Warren County when a 2018 commercial Volvo passenger bus traveling westbound left the roadway and overturned.
Thirty-seven passengers were transported to various hospitals with unknown injuries, the agency said. It said the co-driver was not transported.
“Any time people are injured or killed it’s tragic, but when you have a situation like this where you have multiple fatalities and multiple injuries, it makes it even worse,” Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace told an ABC affiliate .
Huskey said most of the passengers on the bus were Hispanic.
