Five people hospitalized after car hits public bus

Last Updated: 27 December, 2013

On Thursday, December 19, five people were hospitalized after a Show Bus and pickup truck were hit by a vehicle driven by a 16-year-old boy. The multiple vehicle accident occurred near Milford on Illinois Route 1 at around 3:30 p.m.

The accident was caused due to the teenager becoming distracted and crossing into oncoming traffic. He first struck the public transportation bus, causing the bus driver and two other passengers – Laura R. Redburn and Michelle Pickett – to be injured. After striking the bus, the teenager’s vehicle hit a pickup truck driven by Erich C. Hannah.

The juvenile received a ticket for improper lane usage.
