North Texans Sue Bus Company Over Colorado Crash

FORT WORTH (AP) - A lawsuit has been filed over a 2010 chartered bus rollover in Colorado that left some travelers from North Texas hurt.

The lawsuit filed Tuesday in Fort Worth is on behalf of nine Denton residents injured in the Dec. 18 accident near Gunnison, Colo., during icy conditions. The victims were part of a group from Trinity United Methodist Church in Denton on a ski trip.

The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages from Fort Worth-based Gotta Go Express Trailways Inc. and the bus driver, 48-year-old Fred Kornegay of Grand Prairie.

Bus company officials did not immediately comment. Kornegay declined comment Tuesday.
