The military says a Marine who was injured in a bus crash at Fort Rucker in south Alabama has died.

A statement from the Marine Forces Reserve public affairs office in New Orleans says the Marine's identity is being withheld pending notification of his family.

Nearly two dozen Marines were injured when the bus flipped over in a curve Sunday. After the death, four remained hospitalized, one in critical condition.

Army authorities have filed a reckless driving charge against the civilian bus driver, whose name has not been released.

The military said all the injured were from the First and Headquarters platoons based in Bessemer.

The Army Criminal Investigations Division is investigating the accident.
