Three people were killed and 26 injured when a bus carrying mostly teens from a church camp crashed in Indianapolis.

A total of 37 people, including adults, were on board the bus, which was on its way back to an Indianapolis church when it crashed.

Witnesses said the bus came speeding off of an interstate highway on Saturday afternoon, struck a retaining wall as it tried to round a curve and overturned.

Local station WTHR-TV reported the bus driver told witnesses his brakes failed.

"People were trying to climb from under the bus."
