It happened around 10:30 A.M. at Mile Marker 43; that's near the Gibson County/Pike County line.
State Police say nine people were on the bus including the driver. We're told four people were injured and the most severe injury is a broken arm.

• Abbie Oliver, 20, Murray State University, Murray, KY

Another Murray State bus was there to pick up the rest of the team members.
