DALLAS (AP) - Federal officials on Friday ordered the immediate shutdown of a company that operated a bus involved in a fire last month that killed 23 elderly hurricane evacuees along a Texas highway.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration said it ordered Global Limo Inc. off the road because the conditions of its vehicles and drivers "are likely to result in serious injury or death."
Global operated the bus that caught fire near Dallas on Sept. 23 about 16 hours after leaving Houston with residents of a nursing home who were fleeing Hurricane Rita.
