Driver dies in Miley Cyrus tour bus crash

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The driver of a tour bus for Miley Cyrus died on Friday when the vehicle crashed in Virginia, but the teen singer was not on-board, police said.

The bus ran off the side of the road and overturned on its side, and the 53 year-old driver, William G. Douglas of Austin, Texas, died at the scene, Virginia State Police said.

After the crash, nine passengers who were on-board walked out through the vehicle's front windscreen, police said.

Cyrus, who is on a concert tour for which the bus was hired, was not in the vehicle when it crashed.

A representative for Cyrus was not available to comment.
