George Washington –

One of three bus charters carrying members of the Washington University fanfare to a football clash at Washington State University broke Thursday on Interstate 90, announced the patrol of the state of Washington.

The accident at 5:26 pm did not report serious injuries, said Private John Bryant at the Seattle Times.

A total of 25 students were treated for injuries that were not serious or life-threatening, said Bryant. The bus was carrying 56 people, he added.

Soldiers, paramedics and assistants from the Grant County Sheriff's Office responded to the accident, he said.

The accident occurred in the eastbound direction of I-90 at mile 146, about 3 miles west of George, Bryant said.

The road conditions were extremely slippery and icy in some places, the soldier told The Times.

The chartered buses were heading to the Apple Cup, scheduled for Friday in Pullman.

School officials attempted to load students and equipment from the bus that crashed into the two other charter buses that travel together to continue their journey to Pullman, Bryant said.
