Many of the tourists live in South Carolina. The bus belonged to Harrah's Tunica and was headed to the airport for a chartered flight to South Carolina when it flipped over in a median at an intersection, Tunica County spokesman Larry Liddell said. 'She just retired this year when she sold the marina to us. 'She would have called to let me know she was all right.' 'When it happened I kind of had a bad feeling when I didn't hear from her,' he said in a telephone interview from his home. Kemp, a mother of two and first-grade teacher at Mount Pleasant Academy, made the trip by herself to get away and relax before school started, said her husband, Hank. White said it was raining at the time of the accident, but he would not speculate on the cause. Its windows were knocked out and the sides were caked in mud. The bus's roof partially collapsed in the rollover.
The bus was the only vehicle involved in the accident, which was under investigation, White said. Another flight was expected later Monday.
