More from CNN:

A small town in Canada’s Saskatchewan province was in mourning Saturday after a bus carrying a junior hockey team collided with a tractor-trailer, leaving 14 people dead and at least 15 injured.

The mayor of Humboldt, Rob Muench, told CNN partner CBC the whole town is grieving.
“It was horrifying,” he said. “It’s going to hit the community hard.”

Members of the Humboldt Broncos were headed to the town of Nipawin for a playoff game Friday night when the crash happened north of Tisdale, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said.

Three of the 15 injured people were in critical condition, the RCMP said. Authorities have not identified the victims and would not confirm whether they were players, coaches or the driver of the truck. Twenty-nine people were on the bus.

The RCMP previously reported 28 people were on the bus and 14 were injured.

Just terrible.
