2 dead, at least 50 injured in New Mexico tour bus crash
CORONA, N.M. - Police in central New Mexico say two people have been killed and at least 50 injured in the wreck of a tour bus that went out of control and overturned.
The Torrance County Sheriff's Department says the bus was travelling north on U.S. 54 near Corona when the driver lost control in a construction zone.
The bus hit the median and overturned.
The injured included a nine-year-old child.
The bus had come from El Paso, Texas, but authorities did not immediately say where it was headed.
The sheriff's department says roads were snowpacked and icy in the area and that may have contributed to the crash.
