RUSHVILLE, Ill. (WICS) — UPDATE:

Two adults and three children are dead after a school bus vs commercial vehicle crash on Monday.

According to the Illinois State Police, the bus was traveling west on U.S. Route 24 at Parkview Road around 11:30 a.m. and for an unknown reason crossed the center line and was hit by a semi-carrying sand.

Both vehicles became engulfed in flames as a result. The bus driver, truck driver, and all three students on the bus were pronounced dead on the scene.
Like them all, but love the "B"s.

Sad to hear of this. Prayers for all involved, including the first responders. This is indeed a tragic occurrence.
Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.
