School bus overturns on New Jersey turnpike; no serious injuries

CHERRY HILL, N.J. (AP) - A school bus carrying several children crashed and overturned on the New Jersey Turnpike. No serious injuries have been reported.

State police say no other vehicles were involved in the crash, which occurred around 11:40 a.m. Friday in Cherry Hill. The bus ended up on its side on the shoulder of the roadway.

Roughly 30 people were aboard the bus, including several children who had minor injuries. They were being treated at a hospital.

Authorities didn't know if the children were part of an organized group, though most were wearing similar colored shirts. Most of them were standing along the grassy shoulder while they waited for a replacement bus to pick them up.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
