One person dead, more than 24 injured after bus hits overpass at Miami airport

MIAMI — Officials say a bus has hit an overpass at Miami International Airport, killing at least one person and injuring more than two-dozen people on board.

Airport spokesman Greg Chin says the large, white bus hit the overpass going into the airport's arrivals section on Saturday morning. The bus was going about 20 mph when it clipped the roof entrance.

Miami-Dade police Lt. Rosanna Cordero-Stutz says the bus is privately owned and typically used for tours. It's not immediately clear where the bus was headed, but Cordero-Stutz says the driver was unfamiliar with the area and did not intend to wind up at the airport.
