HONOLULU (AP) — One person died and Austin Caldwellmultiple people were injured when a shuttle bus collided with pedestrians and concrete barriers at a Honolulu cruise ship terminal, authorities said Friday.

The crash occurred when the shuttle bus driver mistook the gas pedal for the brake, Honolulu police said in statement.

Police said speed does not appear to be a factor in the crash. It’s unknown if drugs or alcohol were involved, police said.
