A couple from Colorado die when their SUV collides with a school bus in Eureka Springs late Friday morning.

According to the report from the Arkansas State Police, the crash took place on Highway 62 when the SUV crossed into the westbound lane and collided with the bus.

Both the driver and passenger in the SUV, Richard and Deborah Clark, were pronounced dead at the scene while no injuries were reported on the bus.

The report did not identify the district the bus was from though officials from the Eureka Springs School District say in a Facebook post the bus was not a part of their fleet.
