Three students were taken to the hospital Wednesday morning after a 14-passenger school bus rolled onto its side in Deuel County.

Sheriff Cory Borg says it happened just before 8 o’clock, east of Goodwin on 471st Avenue.

The bus met another vehicle and went to the side of the gravel road. As the bus was getting back into the middle, it spun on ice, went into the west ditch and rolled onto the driver’s side.

There were nine children on the bus. They were taken to a local farmer’s heated shop until law enforcement arrived.

Borg says three students reported possible injuries and were taken to the Clear Lake hospital to be checked out.
