British Boy Scouts in Canada Bus Crash

Thirteen people were injured, including one who is in a serious but not life-threatening condition.

"It appears it's a head-on collision between the two vehicles," City of Kawartha Lakes Constable Mark Boileau told Sky News.

"As a result the bus entered a ditch."

Simon Clark, of the Scout Association, told Sky News two busloads of scouts were on an adventure holiday.

He said some scouts had broken bones, bruises and some were suffering from shock.

The cash happened on Highway 35 in eastern Ontario after heavy rain, police said.
