Shocking images captured at the scene near the US-Canada border show both vehicles with extensive damage.

According to the photos, they appear to have collided head-on.

Pictures also showed foot-high snow banks at the edge of the highway.

Up to 15 people were on board the bus when it crashed on State Highway 37 near the city of Louisville, state police said.

Photos of the damaged vehicle showed that the bus appeared to be connected to solar energy company LBFNY, based in central New York.

The company name and its logo were visible on the truck.

Officials called the scene “cruel” and “very difficult,” reports WWNY.

Matt Denner, chief of St. Lawrence County Emergency Services, told the network, “Everyone worked really well together. Everyone was on the same page.

“But like I said, it was a very difficult scene for everyone there.”

The station said visibility may have been limited when the accident happened around 6 a.m.

Officials said Penske’s rental car was fully loaded. It had one occupant.

State police gave few details about the cause of the accident and said they would continue the investigation.

Major Ruben A. Oliver of the New York State Police said: “State Police can confirm 6 fatalities, 1 in critical condition and 2 seriously injured while traveling on the express bus.

“The injured were transported to local hospitals.”

The National Traffic Safety Board confirmed they were investigating.

The victims of the crash were not named.
