Guest Andrea Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Re: Oh my goodness...this is horrible! Yeah, I heard about that as I was about to walk out the door this morning. The bus is just a frame. What a terrible tragedy. They are thinking that because it was filled with elderly people......that one of the oxygen bottles that somebody was carrying exploded. Apparently several of the passengers carried these oxygen bottles to help them breathe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosdog2 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Re: Oh my goodness...this is horrible! 24 people now. I guess it was some elderly people who had alot of oxygen bottles and such. They couldn't get them out in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogwild63 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Re: Oh my goodness...this is horrible! I heard 24 died. I saw live pictures from the channel 11 helicopter this morning. It was TOTALY emgulfed in flames. The exodus traffic had backed up so far emergency crews could not get there quickly. When the first truck got there, there was not one piece of the bus that was not in flames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tyshe17 Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Re: Oh my goodness...this is horrible! Yeah, my gf told me about this last night...it was a bus load of nursing home patients, and all that oxygen made the fire burn (blow up) real fast. One of her families friends mom was on the bus. Very sad, and I am sure there are a lot of people in need of our prayers!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
