Officials say a Harrah's shuttle bus carrying 42 passengers overturned on its
way to the Tunica airport near Casino Strip Drive in Mississippi, after losing
control.

At least four people are dead and at least 31-people injured after the tour bus
went off Highway 61 near Harrah's Casino Sunday morning.

The crash happened early Sunday morning and involved a private charter
bus reportedly from South Carolina.

It appears the bus was on its side at one point, what caused it to go off the
road is not known.

Those injured were taken to several local hospitals by air and by ambulance.
