Atlantic Fire and Rescue were called to the scene of a school bus versus car accident on Interstate 80 eastbound at mile marker 60 (Highway 71). The crash was reported at around 2:45-p.m. The Harlan Community School bus was carrying 17 passengers, none of whom were reported to have been injured. The bus was blocking both lanes, but one lane was said to have been opened up at around 3-p.m. A female in the car was hurt, though. According to dispatch reports, the car apparently rolled over multiple times.
