It was New Year's Eve and the music was still playing when the ceiling of the ground floor of the venue caught fire. People started recording with their cell phones until someone shouted, This place is on fire, we have to get out fast! Then came the screams, different from those of minutes earlier and not captured by the cameras. And chaos.

A bus carrying dozens of adults and teenagers driving downhill through the San Bernardino Mountains overturned as it rounded a curve Sunday night, injuring at least 20 passengers and triggering an hours-long closure of State Highway 330, authorities said. The bus was just south of Running Springs when it rolled over and crashed before 9 p.m., according to a San Bernardino County Fire Protection District social media post.
