A school bus has rolled over north-west of Geelong in Victoria, leaving one dead and multiple people injured, as reported by Geelong Advertiser.
Emergency crews rushed to the scene in Stonehaven around 8:20am today, where police say several of the victims were “seriously injured”.
The bus involved belonged to a Christian college and was carrying around 40 students when it crashed, per the publication.
A girl, who has not yet been identified, tragically died at the scene, while a male student sustained serious injuries.
His current condition remains unclear, and several other students were also hurt in the accident.
“An update will be provided as information becomes available,” a spokesperson said.
Paramedics did not provide any further information on the injuries and said their “priority is with their patients”.
Drivers are being warned that the Hamilton Highway is closed in both directions between Inverleigh and Geelong.
The Department of Transport and Planning advised motorists to take the Geelong Ring Road, Princes Highway, or Inverleigh-Winchelsea Road as alternative routes.
Stonehaven, a semi-rural community around 10km west of Geelong, has a population of roughly 80 residents.
