A school bus full of children overturned after a crash with an SUV in Ohio, killing one child and injuring 23 others, one seriously, authorities said.

Trooper Tyler Ross of the Ohio State Highway Patrol said there were 52 children from Northwestern Local Schools and a driver on the bus at the time of the crash shortly after 8 a.m. Tuesday on Route 41 in Lawrenceville.

He said an eastbound SUV went into the lane of the westbound bus, which veered onto the shoulder but was unable to avoid contact with the SUV and overturned. One student ejected from the bus was pronounced dead at the scene, he said.
