- A bus fell onto its side on a busy Mississippi highway Monday, causing more than 20 high school students to be hospitalized. One student was airlifted to a hospital with severe injuries, Mississippi Highway Patrol spokesman Sgt. Shive said 20 others who were hospitalized had bruises and abrasions. The bus was carrying 40 students and three football coaches back to Greenwood from a football camp in Starkville, Greenwood school district spokeswoman Margaret Dean said, adding that head football coach Clinton Gatewood was driving. An initial investigation shows Gatewood lost control of the bus and that it ran off the right edge of the pavement, Shive said.
