1 Killed, Dozens Injured in California Bus Crash

REDDING, Calif. (AP) — A tour bus that had already crashed earlier in the day overturned just off Interstate 5 in Northern California, killing one person and sending dozens to hospitals.

California Highway Patrol Officer Jeff Borgen says the bus traveling from Los Angeles to Pasco, Washington, crashed Sunday morning about 100 miles south of the Oregon border. It had hit a Denny's restaurant in Red Bluff earlier in the morning, but no one was hurt in that crash.

Borgen tells the Redding Record-Searchlight a 33-year-old man was killed.

Hospital officials tell the Sacramento Bee three people were in critical condition and three were in serious condition.

Twenty-six other passengers were treated at hospitals for minor injuries. Most had been released.

Investigators say early indications show driver fatigue may be to blame for the crashes.
