California IN BRIEF : GORMAN : 20 Injured as Bus Hits Tomato Truck

A Greyhound bus driving on Interstate 5 rear-ended a slow-moving truck loaded with tomatoes, slightly injuring 20 people and splattering enough tomatoes to close the highway, authorities said. “For an unknown reason, the bus driver didn’t see the truck and crashed into the rear of it,” said Officer Mike Krahn of the California Highway Patrol. Bus driver William Davis Winston of San Bernardino was pinned in the wreckage for about an hour after the accident in the Tejon Pass, 70 miles north of Los Angeles, Krahn said. Winston, 45, suffered a broken leg, and 19 of the 39 passengers aboard the Los Angeles-bound bus were treated for bruises, said Liz Dunn, spokeswoman for Greyhound Lines headquarters in Dallas.
