The driver who slammed her SUV into a Los Angeles bus, killing two people, before a news helicopter that was covering it crashed will face murder charges, a prosecutor said Thursday. Bailee Lynn Rios was speeding and impaired when she drove her 2004 Ford Expedition the wrong way down a busy avenue, running a red light and striking a vehicle before plowing into a city bus, Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman told a news conference. She faces two charges of second-degree murder in the deaths of the two people on the bus. The collision gave way to a second deadly incident when a news helicopter covering it crashed, killing both people on board and a third on the ground.

Officials say a helicopter crashed in Los Angeles and killed at least three people near a deadly bus crash. It was not immediately clear Tuesday whether anyone had survived the helicopter crash. An official says one person killed was outside in a parking lot. Officials say that earlier in the day, two people were killed and six others were injured after an SUV crashed into a city bus in Los Angeles. Photos and videos online showed around half of an SUV lodged into the side of an MTA bus and a large fire crew working around the crash.
