VALDOSTA, Ga. (AP) - The Georgia State Patrol says one person has died and several others have been taken to a hospital with injuries after a crash involving a school bus on Interstate 75 in Valdosta.

No details were immediately available about the person who was killed.

Cpl. Chris Kelch of the Georgia State Patrol told the Valdosta Daily Times (http://bit.ly/2bEn96S ) an estimated 13 students aboard the school bus suffered injuries and were taken to South Georgia Medical Center.

The crash blocked all lanes of southbound I-75 for about two hours Monday.
