A driver of a pickup was killed and 12 people were injured this morning when a truck crashed into a bus on Interstate 15 near Craig Road.
The accident occurred about 8:50 a.m. when the truck apparently collided with a bus in the northbound lanes of I-15. Ambulances took 12 people from the bus to area hospitals with injuries that not believed to be life threatening, Nevada Highway Patrol officials said.
Troopers shut down some of the lanes of the highway while the injured people were treated and taken to hospitals. Two of the more seriously injured passengers were taken to University Medical Center's trauma unit. The other injured were taken to other area hospitals' emergency rooms, officials said.
The two bus passengers taken to UMC were both listed in fair condition this morning, a hospital official said.
Traffic was stopped or slowed for hours after the crash.
