Second School Bus Crash Reported
Just weeks after a tragic school bus crash left a local child dead, a pupil from the same school has been taken to hospital after a collision involving a school bus, a 4x4 vehicle and a lorry.
The accident took place in Augher, County Tyrone, and is understood to involve a bus carrying 16 pupils to St Ciaran's High School.
Last month, 16-year-old Nicola Mallon, a pupil at the same school, was killed when a lorry drove into the back of the school bus she was travelling in.
Six other pupils were also injured in that accident.
