2h agoPolice say a school bus driving 20 elementary school students
overturned this morning in Clinton.
The bus was laying across Haytown Road on its left side. The
students were on their way to Round Valley Elementary School. Hunterdon Medical
Center has confirmed that only two students were treated and have since been
released.
News 12 spoke
with Maria Carlo, who, along with her neighbor, Trisha, were first at the
scene. Carlo opened the emergency back door of the bus to get the kids
out.
“Blank faces, nobody was screaming, everybody was pretty calm
and I just asking is anybody hurt and to go away from the bus," says
Carlo. "I was very shocked. I think I was more panicked than they
were."
The
district superintendent, Round Valley school principal and a guidance
counselor were all on scene as well - helping to ease the
stress of the parents who were at the scene of the crash.
News 12 spoke
with a father of one student who was on the bus who said she
suffered minor bruises, but she's safe and at home.
Parents also say the bus driver was OK and able to get up and
walk around.
The cause of the crash is unknown at this time.
