According to Austalia’s 9 News, Iero “escaped serious injuries but two other men had to be taken to hospital.” It continues, “One of the men was airlifted to St Vincent’s Hospital, the other was taken by road. They are both reported to be serious but stable.”

There were no passengers on the bus, but the driver was taken to the hospital for mandatory tests.

Iero tweeted that him and the members are “pretty banged up but miraculously alive” and that he’s still “in a state of shock.”
