Police: 4 dead in a San Antonio crash involving a bus and a stolen vehicle
Police said two people traveling on the bus were pronounced dead at the scene on Interstate 35 and another two were declared dead in a hospital. Fire officials said they took 21 people to hospitals.
Several people fled the stolen Camaro without stopping to help, including at least one who was armed, police said.
Police Chief William McManus said children and older people were among the injured.
The Camaro struck a trailer attached to the bus, causing the bus driver to lose control of the vehicle, which then bounced into a guardrail. A tractor-trailer then smashed into the bus, which rolled onto its side. Several people were ejected from the bus, police said.
Police said the people who fled the Camaro have not been located or identified.

Newly unsealed Bryan Kohberger docs reveal creepy incidents at victims' home before University of Idaho murders
The University of Idaho victims murdered by Bryan Kohberger came home to find their front door wide open and loose on its hinges — just days before they were viciously stabbed to death. The students also spotted a man lurking outside their home in the weeks before the shocking quadruple murder. The eerie happenings were laid bare in a massive trove of documents released by cops late Wednesday after the 30-year-old cold-blooded killer was sentenced to life in prison for butchering Xana Kernodle, Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen and Ethan Chapin in their off-campus Moscow home. Advertisement In one frightening ordeal, a disturbed Goncalves had told her roommates that she'd seen a strange man staring her down when she took her dog, Murphy, outside roughly a month before the Nov. 13, 2022, slayings. 4 Documents surrounding the gruesome slaying of four University of Idaho students by convicted murderer Bryan Kohberger have been released. AP Bethany Funke, who was one of two roommates to survive the night of the stabbings, told cops in an interview after the murders that Goncalves saw the unknown man 'up above their house to the south.' Advertisement The run-in was concerning enough that Goncalves had 'told everyone' about it and even called her roommates to ask if they'd be home soon, Funke told police. Then, just nine days before the attack, the roommates came home at 11 a.m. on Nov. 4 to find their front door open, loose on its hinges, as the wind blew, the documents revealed. Funke told police in her interview that Kernodle's father fixed the door. 4 The documents outline the heartless killings, stating that 'a lot of force' was used. Advertisement It remains unclear if Kohberger was the man spotted outside the home in the lead up — or if the strange occurrences were in any way linked to the murders. The newly released documents, though, shed light on the frenzied efforts by law enforcement to follow every possible lead as they hunted down the killer. Here's the latest coverage on Bryan Kohberger: The documents also disclosed gruesome, bloody details of the vicious killings — including how Kernodle had sustained more than 50 stab wounds — including two to the heart — as she attempted to fight off her deranged killer. Advertisement Police said they found her lying on her back in her bloodstained underwear and shirt, with defensive knife wounds to her hand, including a deep gash between her index finger and thumb on her left hand. 4 The off-campus home where four University of Idaho students were stabbed to death on Sunday, November 20, 2022, in Moscow, Idaho. James Keivom The files also detailed how investigators processed the gruesome crime scene and ran down tips from people who claimed to have gone on a Tinder date with Kohberger or to have seen him walking along a highway. The chilling documents were released just hours after Kohberger, who pleaded guilty weeks before his trial was to start in a deal to avoid the death penalty, was handed four life sentences over the killings. During the sentencing, Kohberger refused to explain why he slipped into the rental home in Moscow through a sliding glass door in the early hours and stabbed his victims. 4 Blood oozes out of the side of an off-campus home where four University of Idaho students were stabbed to death on Thursday, November 17, 2022, in Moscow, Idaho. James Keivom 'I share the desire expressed by others to understand the why,' Judge Steven Hippler told the packed courtroom.

Video showing migrant worker moved by forklift prompts action from South Korea's president
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea's president ordered officials to find ways to prevent abuses of migrant workers after a video showing a Sri Lankan worker being moved by a forklift while tied up at a South Korean factory sparked public outrage. 'After watching the video, I couldn't believe my eyes,' President Lee Jae Myung wrote Thursday in a Facebook post. 'That was an intolerable violation and clear human rights abuses of a minority person.' In a Cabinet Council meeting later, Lee again condemned the abuse and raised concerns about South Korea's international image. He ordered government ministries to determine the status of human rights violations facing migrant workers and other minorities in South Korea and find realistic steps to prevent such abuses. South Korean human rights activists on Wednesday released the video filmed at a brick factory in the southwestern city of Naju in late February. They said it was filmed and provided by a fellow Sri Lankan worker. The video shows a forklift driver, who has been identified as a South Korean, lifting another worker who is bound with plastic wraps and tied to bricks. The driver moves him around the factory yard in the vehicle while the sound of laughter from another person can be heard. The 31-year-old victim, who came to South Korea in November, suffered the abuse for about five minutes as a punishment imposed by the South Korean forklift driver who wasn't happy with his brick wrapping skills, according to Mun Gil Ju, one of the local activists involved in the video's release. Naju city officials said the head of the factory told them he had been informed the event was organized as a prank. But Mun said 'bounding a person with plastic wraps' cannot be dismissed as a prank. The company has about 24 workers, including seven from East Timor and Sri Lanka along with South Koreans. The Sri Lankan victim still works for the factory, according to Naju officials. The Labor Ministry said in a statement Thursday it will launch an investigation of the factory and inspect whether foreign workers there have experienced beating, bullying and overdue wages. Hundreds of thousands of migrants, mostly from Southeast Asia and China, take low-paying or dangerous work at factories, farms and other sites where activists say many experience discrimination and abuses.

UnitedHealth says it is under a federal investigation and cooperating
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — Shares of UnitedHealth Group dove early Thursday after the health care giant said it was under a Department of Justice investigation. The company said it has started complying with both criminal and civil requests from federal investigators and it was cooperating with them. '(UnitedHealth) has a long record of responsible conduct and effective compliance,' the company said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing. Earlier this year, The Wall Street Journal said federal officials had launched a civil fraud investigation into how the company records diagnoses that lead to extra payments for its Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans. Those are privately run versions of the government's Medicare coverage program mostly for people ages 65 and over. The company's UnitedHealthcare business covers more than 8 million people as the nation's largest provider of Medicare Advantage plans. The business has been under pressure in recent quarters due to rising care use and rate cuts. UnitedHealth Group Inc. said in February that it wasn't aware of the start of any new activity as the paper reported. The company said Thursday that it reached out to the Justice Department 'after reviewing media reports about investigations into certain aspects of the company's participation in the Medicare program.' UnitedHealth runs one of the nation's largest health insurance and pharmacy benefits management businesses. It also operates a growing Optum business that provides care and technology support. Company shares have mostly shed value since December, when UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was fatally shot in midtown Manhattan on his way to the company's annual investor meeting. The stock price dropped 3%, or $9.63, to $283 shortly before markets opened Thursday.
