A charter bus traveling to a casino overturned in north-central California on Sunday, killing 10 people and injuring several others.
California Highway Patrol officials said the crash happened around 6:10 p.m. on a rural road near the town of Williams about 60 miles north of Sacramento as the bus headed to Colusa Casino Resort from Sacramento.
California Highway Patrol Commander Fran Clader said Sunday night that 10 people were dead and estimated that 20 to 30 others were injured.
CHP dispatcher Terry Troth said the bus ran off the road and rolled over.
No other vehicles appeared to be involved in the crash, he said.
Troth did not know the extent of the injuries, but he said the victims were being transported to several area hospitals, including Colusa Regional Medical Center and Enloe Medical Center in Chico.
