A Greyhound bus traveling on Interstate 87 from New York City to Montreal crashed through a guard rail and landed upside down near Westport, killing at least five people and injuring many others, officials said.
The bus made stops in Albany and Saratoga Springs before the crash, said Greyhound spokeswoman Anna Folmnsbee. There were 52 passengers and the driver aboard, she said. The driver was killed.
Ray Thatcher, Director of Emergency Services for Essex County, said it was unlikely that more bodies remained inside, but rescue workers continued to pick through the wreckage.
