An afternoon crash involving a Voyager school bus and a sedan rattled a peaceful Duluth neighborhood. According to Duluth Police Department reports, officers raced to the scene at the intersection of Rice Lake Road and Barnes Road at approximately 3:15 p.m., following a collision between the northbound car and a school bus executing a turn.
The crash's impact was significant enough to injure the bus rider – comprising the bus driver, a student, and an adult passenger – but mercifully, all injuries were deemed non-life-threatening. The female driver of the vehicle wasn't as lucky, suffering minor injuries, though she was fortunate to receive immediate treatment on the spot. Authorities investigating the scene found no signs of impairment from either driver.
In the heat of post-impact chaos, first responders worked swiftly to secure the scene. The Duluth Police, in an ongoing investigation that's peeling back the layers of this mid-afternoon mishap, will now scour the wreck's particulars for an answer perhaps more fickle and evasive than the fleeting stillness that once cloaked that residential corner.
As the local community absorbs the jolt of this unforeseen disruption, the possibility of charges looms like an unwelcome guest. "This incident remains under investigation and our investigators will review the crash for potential charges," the Duluth Police said in the statement.
