Crash of Redskins Buses to Cost Minneapolis, Bus Company and Insurer $237K
A crash last November involving buses carrying the Washington Redskins on their way to play the Minnesota Vikings will cost Minneapolis more than $237,000.
The Star Tribune reported the proposed settlement will be discussed and likely approved next week by the city’s budget committee. The payment would be split about evenly between Minneapolis-based Lorenz Bus Service and Gotham Insurance Company.
Two buses transporting the Redskins collided on an interstate exit ramp near TCF Bank Stadium. A squad car moving toward the front of the motorcade lost control, causing an abrupt stop and one bus to rear end another.
