Two Men Fatally Injured on Tour Bus in Coles County

Two men riding on the upper level of a double decker bus in Coles County were fatally injured when their heads struck an overpass.

[wow]

Can you say "stupid mistake"! Why in the hell would they do that?

[Response to wow]

Dear Wow,
Can YOU say "i'm stupid!" for writing such an ignorant comment?

[Sad]

Very unfortunate incident. You are right. It doesn't require any ignorant or insensitive comments.

[wow]

Here is the deal...I have heard other news since writing the comment and I apologize. When I wrote it, the story in the papers were that the two men were drunk and standing on the seats of the bus. I had also read in another paper that the driver had repeatedly told them to sit down. Regardless of the information, I shouldn't of said it and I am sorry. I guess when the story first broke out, it seemed to be only irresponsiblity on thier (boys) part. I feel badly for their family and friends as the grieve. However, I don't feel that it makes me stupid for what I said it just maked me jump to conclusions before hearing all facts.

Any word on accountability?

Perhaps they should of listened when they were told to remain seated.What part of sit down and shut up didn't they understand??
