Four people were killed when a bus carrying senior citizens on a casino outing collided with a freight train Tuesday in Biloxi, Mississippi, officials said. Previous reports from Biloxi officials fluctuated between three and four deaths.
The Texas-based charter bus, carrying 48 people, was heading north on Main Street when it got stuck trying to cross train tracks in Biloxi, according to Cecilia Dobbs Walton, a city spokeswoman. The eastbound CSX train struck the bus around 2:13 p.m., said Vincent Creel, another city spokesman. Seven passengers were critically injured, city officials said.
