Charges Filed In Hockey Team Bus Crash That Killed 16
TORONTO (AP) -- Canadian police say someone has been arrested and charged in connection with an April bus crash involving a junior hockey team.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police did not immediately release the person's name on Friday.
The crash occurred when a bus carrying the Humboldt Broncos hockey team collided with a semi-trailer in Saskatchewan on April 6. Sixteen people were killed and 13 others injured.
The Broncos were on their way to a crucial playoff game against the Nipawin Hawks when the accident occurred.
Police say the uninjured truck driver was initially detained but later released and provided with mental health assistance.
