The ST. LOUIS (MO) POST-DISPATCH reports that the 2 busses were on I-44 near Gray Summit and enroute to the Six Flags amusement park near Eureka when a vehicle crashed into the back of a "bobtail" or semi-truck tractor unit that had slowed for construction.
Then one of the busses hit the car and went over it onto the back of the truck tractor while the second bus hit the back of the first bus.
The driver of the vehicle that was crushed by the first bus was dead at the scene as well as one of the students on the bus that crushed the vehicle.
At least 50 occupants of the busses including the truck-tractor driver were injured.
