Lady Antebellum's Bus Catches Fire On Highway

A tour bus for country group Lady Antebellum has caught fire on a Texas highway, but no one was injured.
Singer Hillary Scott, her husband, their tour manager and the driver were on the Dallas-bound bus when a tyre caught fire on Thursday.

The back of the bus was badly burned, but all those on board were able to evacuate quickly.
Scott, who said she was asleep when the bus caught fire, posted on the group's Facebook page that "EVERYONE IS SAFE AND SOUND."
She also posted a photo of a Bible which she said was among the few items in the back of the bus not destroyed.
"I kid you not, EVERYTHING in the back lounge was destroyed from the flames, except my Bible," she wrote.
"The outside cover was burned and messed up but NOT ONE PAGE was missing."
Police say the driver stopped the bus after the tyre blew on Interstate 30 east of Dallas, and the vehicle caught fire.
Lady Antebellum are nominated for Vocal Group of the Year at Sundays 50th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards.
The show is held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, near Dallas.
