Narrative
A suspected distracted driver caused a four-car crash at a bus stop on Highway 4 which caused the death of a 12 year-old on March 6th. There were some vehicles waiting for a bus at a bus stop when an incoming vehicle crashed into the stopped cars. The impact pushed some cars into each other and two additional incoming cars crashed into the first set of crashed cars. The young victim was reported to have been in a car that was in the midst of the crash. Apart from the fatality, one adult had serious injuries and two other individuals had small injuries. The school bus and the children near it were not hurt. The roadway was opened back up about five hours later.
