15 injured when school bus overturns in New Jersey
Fifteen people -- including 14 children -- were injured when a school bus overturned and landed on its side in New Jersey, and one child is now "fighting for his life," officials said.
The bus was heading north on the Garden State Parkway with 31 people on board when it went off the right side of the road and overturned in Montvale at 7:39 p.m. Monday, the New Jersey State Police said.
One child suffered serious injuries, the 44-year-old driver suffered moderate injuries and 13 children sustained minor injuries, police said.
The child who was seriously hurt, a 14-year-old boy, was pinned under the overturned bus before he was rescued, and he's "fighting for his life," Montvale Mayor Mike Ghassali said in a Facebook statement on Tuesday.
The crash remains under investigation, police said.
