An accident involving two tour buses Friday morning in northwest New Jersey has sent two dozen people to hospitals.

State Police say the crash happened on Interstate 80 in the westbound lanes in Roxbury Township about 40 miles west of the George Washington bridge.

State police say one bus slid off the overpass and overturned.

At least 94 people were on the two buses.

A total of 24 people were transported to local hospitals, but police say as many as half of them were taken as a precaution.

Police say the most seriously hurt victim appeared to have a moderate back injury.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.

Television reports showed traffic backed up about a mile in the westbound lanes.
