Prosecutors in Columbia County say the truck driver who slammed his 18-wheeler into the back of a stopped school bus was on drugs at the time. A judge set bail for 42-year-old Wayne Murphy at 35-thousand dollars during a court appearance late last week. He’s been in the Columbia County Jail since May 23rd. Twenty-six people on that bus were hurt, with five suffering critical injuries. The eighth-graders were on a field trip to the Wisconsin Dells. The driver from Indiana was working for North Dakota-based Dahl Trucking when he caused the accident on Interstate 39 south of Coloma.
