A minivan carrying seven Michigan tourists to Niagara Falls crossed a median on Interstate 90 and was hit by an oncoming car, leaving six people in the van dead, police say.

Six Indians were killed when a minivan in which they were travelling to visit Niagara Falls spun out of control and crashed into another car in Erie County in the US state of Pennsylvania.

The 59-year-old Joyce wants the trial moved to U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh.
