School bus on fire rolls toward fire engine on I-94 (Video by Scott Linne).
Some report say the burning school bus on I-94 rolled into a fire engine, but quick action by the engineer/driver avoided catastrophe. The driver of the fire engine put the fire truck in reverse and was able to avoid collision by about 12 feet or less.
“She’s rolling! Hey, it’s rolling!” someone yells, as the burning school bus rolls into the path of the parked fire engine.
