One child was ejected from the bus and pronounced dead at the scene. Twenty-three other students were injured. The accident, which took place around 8 a.m., resulted when the eastbound Odyssey drove into the lane of the westbound bus. The bus tried to avoid contact but couldn’t and turned over on impact. A passenger in the gray Odyssey was seriously injured while the drivers of the school bus and minivan had minor injuries. The driver of the bus was wearing a seatbelt but belts were not available for passengers, according to officials. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Related: <a href="https://www.levelman.com/the-never-ending-nightmare-of-watching-my-son-stop-breathing-1200c967814f/" rel="nofollow"> The Never-Ending Nightmare of Watching My Son Stop Breathing </a> Related: <a href="https://www.levelman.com/the-never-ending-terror-of-my-kids-school-going-into-lockdown/" rel="nofollow"> The Never-Ending Terror of My Kid's School Going Into Lockdown </a> Northwestern Local schools posted the following message on its Facebook page: “We will have <a href="https://www.levelman.com/how-to-help-your-mother-mourn-when-grief-is-everywhere-9d2b2d38a448/" rel="nofollow"> grief </a> counselors available for anyone who needs additional support during this tragedy.
