Dent, MN – A school bus rolled near Star Lake during Tuesday’s snowfall.
The Otter Tail County Sheriff’s Office says that around 1:37 Tuesday afternoon, an Otter Tail Coaches school bus rolled in the ditch on 380th Street in rural Dent.
The bus was occupied by only the driver and one juvenile. Neither were injured in the accident.
Deputies say that the bus went into the ditch due to the snow covered roads and limited visibility. The steep road ditch caused the school bus to roll onto the side.
Beyer’s Towing removed the bus from the ditch.
