At least three people were killed when a bus and tractor-trailer collided on a Virginia highway overnight just outside of Colonial Williamsburg, authorities said Friday.
State police learned of the crash on eastbound Interstate 64 in York County at 1:38 a.m. EST, officials said.
It wasn’t immediately clear where the three victims had been riding, but both drivers appeared to survive the crash, a state police spokesperson said. All 22 passengers on the commercial bus were unrestrained, according to police.
The passengers on the bus and the drivers are being treated at area hospitals “for various injuries,” the spokesperson said.
The names of the three people who died were not disclosed, pending next-of-kin notification.
The accident happened about one mile east of Exit 242, which connects I-64 to Virginia State Route 199. The crash site is just north of Williamsburg, one of America’s oldest cities and former capital of the colony.
