Driver error is likely the cause of a crash involving a school bus and an empty freight train that killed two people and injured 12 more in northeastern North Dakota, police said Tuesday.
Evidence at the scene indicates the 62-year-old bus driver braked but didn't stop in time to prevent the crash Monday afternoon near Larimore, Highway Patrol Lt. Troy Hischer said. The bus driver and a 17-year-old girl were killed.
Roger Abbe, superintendent of the Larimore Public School district, joins The Daily Circuit to talk about how the collision is affecting the school and community.
