Authorities investigating deadly crash of church charter bus

PUEBLO, Colo. (AP) — Authorities are asking for help as they investigate a church charter bus crash in southern Colorado that killed two people and injured at least 13 others.

State Patrol Sgt. Blake White says any witnesses to Sunday's Interstate 25 crash north of Pueblo are asked to contact the patrol.

Two people, including the driver, were killed when the bus struck a bridge embankment and veered off the highway at about 2:30 p.m.

White said Monday that their identities will be released once the Pueblo County coroner notifies next of kin.

The bus was chartered by a church group in Albuquerque, New Mexico and was returning from a church conference in Denver when the accident occurred.
