No students injured after Mustang and school bus collide in Kamloops

Kamloops Fire Rescue was busy on Wednesday in terms of motor vehicle incidents, dealing with an overturned semi-truck, a malfunctioning crane, and an incident involving a school bus.

According to KFR's Henry Chin, between 3:30 and 4 pm, a Mustang collided with a school bus. Luckily, no students were on the bus at the time of the incident.

"I don't know about who was at fault but I can tell you what we did," said Chin. "We got pinged out for an MVI, a bus into a car, we showed up, we secured the scene, and it looked like an ambulance was talking to a patient."

Chin adds that the jaws of life were used to extract the driver out of the Mustang. He suffered minor injuries but was taken to Royal Inland Hospital as a precaution.

"The driver was trapped, no one was on the bus, except the bus driver and he was not hurt. The gentleman that got hit there on the driver side of the door was not injured or seriously injured, but the ambulance wanted to have a look at him still."

"He was trapped and we had to pop a door to get him out. When we got him out, the ambulance took him away."

Drive safely out there Kamloops!
