Team Captain Among 14 Dead After Bus Carrying Hockey Players Crashes in Canada

(NIPAWIN, Saskatchewan) — The captain of a junior hockey team is among the 14 people killed in a bus crash in western Canada.

The father of Logan Schatz says his 20-year-old son had played for the Humboldt Broncos for the past four years and had been the team’s captain for two of those.

Head coach Darcy Haugan was also among the 14 killed.

Canadian police say the crash happened at about 5 p.m. Friday on Highway 35 in Saskatchewan when a semi T-boned the bus carrying the hockey team.

The Broncos were on their way to play in Game 5 of a semi-final against the Nipawin Hawks.

Authorities have yet to identify all of the deceased. Fifteen others were injured.
