According to from the Indiana State Police and the Indiana Department of Transpor- tation, the fatal crash happened around 9:30 a.m.

A preliminary investi- gation indicates the bus had just stopped at a rail- road crossing, as required by law, police said in the release. It was starting to accelerate when it was hit from behind by a white 2016 Freightliner straight truck that was towing a trailer, according to Sgt. Ted Bohner. A male teenage stu- dent sitting in the back of the bus died at the scene, the release said. Another student, 14, was airlifted to a hospital in South Bend with injuries be- lieved to be non-life- threatening.

Other students were taken to another hospital to be reunited with their parents, the release said. Some were treated there for complaints of pain. Toxicology results are pending for both drivers, police said. Weather is not believed to have played a role in the crash. U.S.

31 northbound was closed for crash re- construction and the re- moval of the vehicles, the release said. Call IndyStar reporter Justin L. Mack at 317- 444-6138.
