PIKE COUNTY, Ind. - Four athletes from a Kentucky college were injured when their bus flipped on slick roads Friday.
The crash happened just after 11:30 a.m. along northbound Interstate 69 in Pike County.
Jennifer Severns, 33, the women's track coach at Murray State University, was driving one of two school mini-buses when she lost control in icy conditions, police said.
The bus ran off the roadway and flipped onto the driver's side.
Four students -- Katie Forsehy, 21; Tonia Pratt, 19; Abbie Oliver, 20; T.J. Wirth, 23 -- were treated at Jasper Memorial hospital for minor injuries.
The team was on its way to Indiana University for an indoor track meet.
