On Friday afternoon, a charter bus carrying 56 University of South Carolina students and their guests crashed in southern Mississippi while en route to a fraternity formal in New Orleans. The incident resulted in injuries to 11 individuals, including 10 students and the bus driver.
The crash occurred around 3 p.m. on Interstate 10 in Hancock County, Mississippi. According to reports from the Mississippi Highway Patrol, the bus driver lost control of the vehicle after one of its tires blew out. This led to a harrowing situation where the bus leaned to one side, causing the front windshield to shatter and the driver to be ejected.
