Johnathon Grayer, 25, rear-ended a school bus near Alma, Georgia, on Wednesday afternoon.

He was driving a Ryder box truck at a high rate of speed when he plowed into the rear of the school bus as children were being dropped off.

Grayer helped remove the 10 children from the damaged bus before he collapsed and later died.

All 10 children and the bus driver sustained injuries from the crash, but none are life-threatening.

A drunk driver with three prior DUIs who struck and killed a pregnant woman in California has been charged with murder.

Courtney Pandolfi, 40, was slapped with the felony charge Thursday - less than 48 hours after the Jeep she was driving jumped a curb and plowed into Yesenia Lisette Aguilar, 23, on an Anaheim sidewalk.

Aguilar, who was 35 weeks pregnant,  was rushed to hospital, but died from her injuries.

Doctors were able to deliver her baby girl, whom her husband has named Adalyn Rose. The infant remains in intensive care at UC Irvine Medical Center, where she is fighting for life.
