L.A. Times: At least 8 dead, more than two dozen injured in tour bus crash (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2013/02/at-least-8-dead-more-than-20-hurt-in-tour-bus-crash.html)

QuoteAt least eight people were killed Sunday night and more than two dozen injured when a tour bus crashed on a dark and narrow mountain road near Yucaipa, authorities said.

QuoteThe accident, which involved a collision between the bus, a truck and a sedan, took place about 6:30 p.m. on California 38 just east of the town of Mentone on a route that leads to the Big Bear resort area, authorities said.

QuoteSome people were ejected from the bus, while others were trapped inside. Because of the severity of the accident, it was difficult for rescue workers to immediately idenfity exactly how many people were killed.
