A Story You Couldn't Make Up

Traffic snarls are nothing unusual in a big city like Houston -- but this one certainly does present an interesting twist.

A disabled prison bus on the Pierce Elevated is snarling traffic on Interstate 45 just south of downtown this morning, snarling inbound traffic well beyond the North Loop.

A Texas Department of Criminal Justice bus headed southbound on the the freeway approaching U.S. 59 stalled on the shoulder around 5:45 a.m. after it hit a mattress, which somehow caught fire, officials said.

The bus remains on the right shoulder while officials wait for a replacement. Shotgun-armed guards are standing by.

The mishap is blocking all southbound lanes but one. No injuries were reported.

gee -- armed guards standing watch over a stalled bus and a burning mattress. it must be quite a site for morning commuters.
