Bus crashes in Montana; at least 2 reported dead

MISSOULA (AP) — A bus crashed Sunday on an icy interstate highway in southwestern Montana, killing at least two people and sending more than two dozen to area hospitals, officials said.

The westbound Rimrock Trailways bus crashed on Interstate 90 near Clinton, about 18 miles southeast of Missoula, shortly after 7 a.m., Dan Ronan of the American Bus Association said.

The crash was one of several reported along that stretch of highway Sunday morning, closing a portion of the interstate. It was not clear if there were additional injuries, or how many.
