A popular Christian band called MercyMe canceled a show from their summer tour in St. Louis after their tour bus collided with a vehicle in northeastern Indiana, leaving two passengers dead, including the pregnant driver’s unborn baby.
None of the band members was seriously injured and only suffered “minor bumps and bruises”. A news story on the bus crash and a photo of the damaged front end of the bus were put up on the band’s Web site last Saturday.
According to a police officer from Fort Wayne, Indiana, witnesses reported that the bus had been going through a green light at 1:15 a.m. when the car made a left-hand turn in front of it. The Dallas-based band had been in the midwest for a concert on August 14.
