A charter bus transporting University of Alabama cheerleaders from the BCS National Championship Game in Miami was involved in an accident Tuesday night with two other vehicles, leaving three passengers injured.

Lt. Jerry Boykins of the Montgomery Community Policing Bureau said a passenger car and pick-up truck were involved in the accident at around 10:20 p.m. Tuesday night.

No one on the charter bus was injured, but a University spokeswoman told The Crimson White Wednesday that a UA student was taken by ambulance from the scene to the hospital.

“A passenger in the pick-up truck was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries,” Boykins said in an e-mailed statement. “Two persons in the passenger car were transported with minor injuries.”

The crash occurred on the Western Boulevard of I-65. The bus was returning to Tuscaloosa from Miami following the BCS National Championship Game. The football team arrived earlier Tuesday night via charter plane from Miami.

Boykins said the crash is currently under investigation.
