Students, teacher injured in ND school crash

Posted: Updated:

Three students and a teacher suffered minor injuries when a semitrailer crashed into their rural school in northwestern North Dakota after colliding with a car. The driver of the car was killed.

The Highway Patrol tells Forum Communications that the students, teacher and semi driver were treated at a hospital and released after the mid-day crash on Monday 16 miles east of Watford City. The woman driving the car and the man driving the semi were not immediately identified.

Authorities say the car failed to yield to the semi at a McKenzie County intersection. After the collision, the semi went through a ditch and a chain-link fence, clipped a parked school bus and pickup truck and slammed into the Johnson Corners Christian Academy, going about 60 feet inside.
