Two days after a farm labor bus carrying 36 workers overturned on Highway 33 south of Mendota, the California Highway Patrol updated the number of people treated for injuries.
About 30 people were taken to four hospitals or sought treatment on their own, said Sgt. Robert Brunell of the CHP office in Coalinga.
The CHP said Tuesday that four men were taken to hospitals by ambulance. Jose Andres Pena, 28, of Avenal, who suffered moderate injuries, was the most seriously hurt. He and Jose Richard Reyes, 24, of Mendota, who had minor injuries, were taken to Community Regional Medical Center in Fresno.
Jose A. Gonzales, 49, of Huron and Jose Guzman Sanchez, 21, of Firebaugh were taken to Madera Community Hospital for minor injuries.
Brunell said the other passengers had minor injuries. Eight were transported by ambulance, and 10 were taken on another farm labor bus to four different hospitals. About six people sought their own treatment, Brunell said.
The accident happened when a bus driven by Juan Filorio, 51, of Winterhaven drifted onto the northbound shoulder of Highway 33 north of Lincoln Avenue. Filorio attempted to get back on the roadway, but overcorrected and the bus overturned, the CHP said.

Comprehensive and Collision coverage on your car, motorcycle, or other motor vehicle will cover the damage to your car, motorcycle, or other motor vehicle if you are in an accident that is your fault up to the “Fair Market Value,” of your vehicle. It will also cover your vehicle up to Fair Market Value if it is stolen.
