Three students killed in
Ala. school bus plunge
Car driven by a high school
student causes bus to plow
through concrete rail
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) - A school bus packed
with high school students smashed through a guard-
rail along an overpass yesterday and crashed nose-
first 30 feet below, killing three teenage girls and
injuring at least 30 other people, some critically,
authorities said.
A car driven by another high school student appar-
ently came close to or struck the bus, causing it to
plow through the concrete rail on the elevated sec-
tion of Interstate 565 and crash onto Church Street
below, Police Chief Rex Reynolds said.
Two girls died at the scene, and a third died at a
hospital.
Students on the bus, which had no seat belts, were
screaming when rescue workers arrived. "They were
thrown all over the bus," Fire Chief Dusty Under-
wood said. Some had to be pulled from the crushed
front of the vehicle.
More than 30 students and the bus driver were
taken to Huntsville Hospital, which became a hectic
trauma center with emergency physicians and staff
called in to help as ambulances brought in the severe-
ly injured.
Christina Collier, 18 and Nicole Ford, 17, died at the
scene, police said. A third, Tanesha Hill, 17, died at
the hospital, a hospital official said.
"This is a heartbreaking tragedy," Gov. Bob Riley
said in a statement.
Frantic parents went to the scene, where some stu-
dents sat dazed or lay draped in white sheets, or went
to the hospital to find their children.
Hospital officials said staff members had trouble
identifying some of the more severely injured stu-
dents who were unable to talk and had no identifica-
tion on them.
Before help arrived, terrified students tried to
climb from the wreckage.
"They were falling on each other. People were
screaming, yelling, crying," said LaWanda Jeffer-
son, 16, whose left arm was fractured and face was
bruised. "I was scared, panicking and just getting
ready to cry."
Some children called their relatives from cell
phones shortly after the bus hit the ground, Jefferson
was among them.
"All I could hear was screaming in my ears," said
Doris Harris, Jefferson's grandmother. "Scream-
ing and crying and her saying something about the
bus."
The bus was taking students from Huntsville's Lee
High School to the Center for Technology, where stu-
dents can receive special science and math credits.
At least three survivors were in critical condition,
hospital officials said.

Firefighters at the site of a fire yesterday in the commercial sector of Guatemala City, Guatemala. A cigarette butt thrown into
a stand selling fireworks ignited an enormous blaze in the largest open-air market in the country.
Fire rages throug hmarket
in Guatemala,kllig1
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) - A
fire raged through Guatemala's
largest open-air market yesterday,
killing 15 people, officials said.
Merchants claimed a cigarette
touched off the blaze.
The fire broke out in an area
of illegal fireworks stands, set
up temporarily near a section of
the permanent market shops, fire
department spokesman Ricardo
Lemus said.
Fireworks are popular during
the holidays.
The blaze quickly destroyed
about 40 of the permanent mar-
ket's thousands of shops, which
are spread across an area more
than 2 square miles in size.
Some merchants stayed inside
their stalls to protect their mer-
chandise "instead of taking off
running like I did," said vendor
Roberto Marroquin.
Lemus said that some who
stayed behind were asphyxiated
by toxic fumes. He put the death
toll at 15.
Officials said the cause of
blaze was still under investiga-
tion. But fireworks vendor Car-
los Balan told The Associated
Press that a still-burning ciga-
rette butt accidentally landed in
a fireworks stall, setting off fire-
works and sparking a blaze that
spread rapidly.
Several other merchants, who
did not identify themselves, told
the AP the same story.
Hundreds of firefighters man-
ning 40 trucks fought the blaze.
Lemus said two firefighters were
treated for smoke inhalation and
burns.
