DOTHAN, Ala. (AP) - Authorities say an 11-year-old boy who was
riding in a pickup truck has died from injuries suffered when the
truck collided in Dothan with a church bus from Kentucky.
Dothan police declined to release the name of the boy Monday.
Another child in the pickup truck, described as a 9-year-old, was
listed in critical condition.
The crash Sunday sent 22 bus passengers to local hospitals for
treatment, but all were released.
Police said about 80 members of Centenary United Methodist
Church in Lexington were headed from Kentucky to a church camp in
Panama City, Fla., when the accident occurred.
