EAST MOLINE, Ill. (AP) — Officials say no students were seriously injured when a school bus rolled over in icy weather in western Illinois.
Illinois State Police say the accident happened about 8:40 a.m. Thursday at the intersection of Interstate 80 and Interstate 88 in East Moline. Police say a small school bus from Geneseo was traveling eastbound on Interstate 80 when it hit an icy spot and rolled.
Hospital spokesman Craig Cooper says 11 girls and one adult bus driver were taken to Genesis Medical Center in Silvis. He says there were no serious injuries, although one girl may have a broken leg. He says the girls were on their way to a science fair.
