A Holbrook Indian School student is dead, and six others injured after a three-car crash on Interstate 40 near Sanders in Apache County Sunday morning.
The Holbrook Indian School bus was transporting 19 staff and students on a field trip to New Mexico.
Arizona Department of Public Safety officials say the bus has slowed down as it neared another crash when a semi-truck rear-ended the bus and the impact pushed it into a van in front of it.
According to DPS, there was a full closure on the eastbound I-40. Traffic was diverted through Holbrook to SR 180 to St. Johns and up SR 191 to I-40. Westbound traffic was open and unaffected.
DPS says the incident remains under investigation.
