    What a tragedy. Glad there was a prompt medical response.

    Personally though, I’d have taken Amtrak.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    One person has died and 11 others are injured after a bus headed from Montreal to New York City rolled over on a highway Friday afternoon in the Adirondacks.

    New York State Police said in a news release that they are investigating the crash, which occurred on Interstate 87 in Lake George, roughly 260 kilometres south of Montreal.

    Don Lehman, a spokesperson for Warren County, told CBC News that 11 uninjured passengers were taken to the Lake George Fire Station and there were French translators on site to offer communication assistance.

    Speaking for the American Red Cross, Mike Tripodi said firefighters then transported uninjured passengers to the Fort William Henry Hotel in Lake George.

    Authorities are discussing possible transportation to New York City with a local bus company, and other arrangements may be made if passengers wish, he said.

    "I would like to thank the first responders who did an exceptional job in accompanying and rescuing the passengers and I send my sincerest condolences to the family of the deceased.
