Train Hits Bus in Egypt, 49 School Children Killed

A bus carrying kindergartners was struck by a train, Saturday, in Egypt.

At least forty-nine are dead and eleven are injured, all of ages four to six.

An error left the crossing open, as the speeding train approached.

Transport Minister Mohammed el-Meteeni has offered his resignation to President Mohammed Morsi.

Prime Minister Hesham Kandil attempted to get to the scene, but people blocked his way.

Residents of the region are now protesting the Morsi government, demanding he and Kandil step down.
