twitterEight still hospitalized from tour bus crash
Monday, Sept. 28, 1998 | 3:38 a.m.
Five of the 13 injured people who were admitted to Washoe Medical Center in Reno on Saturday had been discharged by Monday, but eight others remained there in satisfactory condition, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Hospital spokeswoman Kerry Garcia said they had minor injuries ranging from scrapes and bruises to back and internal injuries. Most of the patients were from the San Francisco Bay area.
California Highway Patrol officers were trying to determine the speed the Coach USA bus was traveling before Saturday's crash.
"My guess is that it had something to do with the speed," CHP Officer Mark Kucera said Sunday.
Passenger Barbara Dennis, 33, agreed. "I think the driver was going too fast."
One of the victims was identified as Juan Torres, 44, of Alameda, Calif. The name of the other victim, a 59-year-old San Francisco Bay area woman, was being withheld pending notification of family members.
