Over 30 people were injured when a shuttle bus crashed into a ditch in Missouri on Saturday morning.


At around 10:45 a.m., the driver of a Freightliner shuttle bus heading westbound on State Highway 100 west of Eagles Nest Drive in Gasconade County traveled off the right side of the road, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said. The driver then overcorrected and veered off the left side of the road, hitting a ditch, it said.


Officials didn’t disclose the cause of the crash.


At least 33 people, all adults 27 to 68, were hurt, most of them with minor and moderate injuries, according to online records. Four people had serious injuries: a 36-year-old woman, a 37-year-old man, a 45-year-old man and a 60-year-old man.


An additional person on the bus, a 60-year-old woman, wasn’t injured. All passengers, including the uninjured woman, were taken to area hospitals. Officials didn’t identify anyone on the bus.


It wasn’t clear how many people were on board or where they were going.
