Police Sergeant Mike Farr said the driver crashed into a pillar in the vehicle park, but the reason for the crash is not known. “Why? I don’t know that answer yet, but medical conditions could be one of those answers”. The bus was one of three Adams 12 school buses that picked up Legacy students after they returned home from an out-of-state football game. All of the students who were hospitalized had been released by the afternoon of September 12. Airbags deployed but the female bus driver was killed, Denver police Sgt. Mike Farr said. A crisis team was there to help students.

– A pickup truck driver and a few students on a school bus were injured in a crash Tuesday morning in Polk County.

The bus driver, an unnamed woman, died in the accident, police said.

According to the Associated Press, the bus involved is with Adams 12 Five Star Schools. The bus was carrying the Legacy High football team from Broomfield.

“It would be curious that she comes back up around”, said Farr.
