A serious bus rollover crash occurred Monday morning southwest of Random Lake, Wisconsin, near the Sheboygan-Ozaukee County line, resulting in multiple student injuries. The accident happened at the intersection of County Highway E and Jay Road, a rural area that sees relatively little traffic.
Initial reports indicate that the bus was transporting students, though the exact number of individuals involved and the extent of their injuries have not yet been fully disclosed. The accident has prompted a significant emergency response, with local first responders, including fire and rescue teams, arriving on the scene to assist with the aftermath and provide medical care.
The Ozaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed that they were not summoned to the scene, which suggests that there may have been no fatalities, or the situation was still being assessed. This detail, however, does not necessarily reflect the full scope of injuries sustained or the severity of the crash.
Authorities are currently investigating the cause of the rollover, and the circumstances leading up to the incident are still unclear. The investigation will likely consider factors such as road conditions, weather, the bus’s mechanical condition, and driver error. The area where the crash occurred is known for its winding roads and varying terrain, which might have contributed to the accident.
Local law enforcement and emergency services have been working diligently to ensure the injured receive prompt medical attention and to assess the situation thoroughly. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation and other relevant agencies are expected to be involved in the investigation to determine any potential infrastructure-related factors that could have played a role.
