Police say one student was killed and another was injured when a flatbed truck collided with a school bus in northern Indiana.
Indiana State Police Sgt. Ted Bohner says a male teenager died Wednesday morning when the truck rear-ended the bus along U.S. 31, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) south of South Bend.
A second student injured in the crash just after 9 a.m. was airlifted to a South Bend hospital. Bohner says that student's injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.
He says he was told that 39 students were on the Eastern Pulaski Community School Corporation bus when the crash occurred near the Marshall County town of Argos.
A parent told NBC affiliate station NewsCenter 16 the students were headed to see "Elf the Musical," but police did not immediately confirm that information.
Bohner says the crash occurred at a point where railroad tracks intersect U.S. 31.
