Bus Crash New York
It was only about 30 minutes from its destination when the wreck happened a little after 1 p.m. on Interstate 84 in the town of Wawayanda, about 45 miles northwest of New York City.The two adults who died were the high school's band director, Gina Pellettiere, 43, of Massapequa, and a retired teacher Beatrice Ferrari, 77, of Farmingdale.
“Then everyone was yelling," he said."The kid next to me was covered in blood. I saw blood everywhere.” A September trip to band camp is an annual tradition at the suburban high school, which has around 1,700 students. Members of the band, color guard and the school’s kick line team attend, as well as adult chaperones. During some years, more than 300 students have gone on the trip to rehearse and have fun in rural Pennsylvania.Many of the 40 students on the bus were freshmen, Hochul said. “They endured. They were strong,” she said.
