MONTREAL – Over a dozen people were injured after a bus swerved and crashed onto its side near the Canada-U.S. border in Quebec’s Eastern Townships region Saturday night.
Quebec provincial police says the bus was travelling on Route 133 when the driver lost control at around 8:30 p.m. in Saint-Armand, Que., about 62 kilometres southeast of Montreal.
Police spokesperson Frédéric Deshaies says most of the 40 passengers walked away with minor injuries but about fifteen people were hospitalized.
