Full Report of Fatal Bus Crash [AUDIO]
I spoke with Sgt. Scott Hoffman of the Montana Highway Patrol about Sunday morning's fatal bus accident east of Missoula. That interview is attached.
Hoffman says the bus was not equipped with seat belts, and he does not believe that alcohol played any part in the fatal crash. Hoffman says the driver survived the crash. He said the two fatalities were passengers who had been ejected and were trapped under the overturned bus.
