School Bus Collides with SUV
When a school bus collided with an SUV in Eureka, MO, a woman was killed and five children injured. Kaela Archambault, 20, was the driver of the SUV that crossed the center line, hitting the school bus head-on. Her car exploded into flames prompting multiple fire houses to respond. According to KMOV in St. Louis, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
At that time there were only five Greggie Elementary students left on the bus in grades 1, 2, 3, and 5. The Rockwood School District students were taken to the St. John's Mercy Medical Center to checked for any serious injuries; all of them are expected to be released quickly. The bus driver was also taken to the hospital but soon after was released.
Investigators are still looking into the cause of the bus accident as they aren't sure what caused her to cross the center line at that time. They say that Archambault is a Florida resident visiting family in the Eureka area.
