DINWIDDIE, Va. (AP) — One person was killed Friday when a tour bus belonging to Miley Cyrus overturned, but the 16-year-old "Hannah Montana" star was not on board, Virginia State Police said.



Sgt. Thomas Molnar said the bus overturned around 8:15 a.m. on Interstate 85 in Dinwiddie, about 40 miles south of Richmond.



One of the other nine passengers had minor injuries. Police would not identify those aboard.



A wrecker arrived late Friday morning to haul away the black-and-maroon luxury tour bus, which was on its side in a ditch off the highway where it had apparently skidded for several hundred feet.



According to Miley Cyrus' Web site, the pop singer is scheduled to perform Sunday in Greensboro, N.C.



Miley Cyrus is the daughter of country star Billy Ray Cyrus, who also appears on the family friendly sitcom "Hannah Montana."
