MIDDLEBURG – Two Midd-West School District students who were injured in a crash involving their school bus Friday morning have been released from the hospital, but two more students are going to be check out. Superintendent Rick Musselman tells WKOK both students who went to the hospital following the crash are home or going home. Those students were sent to the hospital for precautionary reasons and at the request of their parents.
Since then, Musselman says two more students who went to school after the crash later complained to the school nurse of side affects or injuries. That prompted the nurse to call parents to take those students to the hospital. Side affects or injuries are also considered minor for those students.
Musselman tells us the crash occurred sometime after 7:30 a.m. along Main Street in Middleburg. Musselman says there were 27 students on the bus at the time, and all students on board were checked out by the nurse on scene. The bus driver was not injured. Musselman says another driver was going the wrong way on a one-way street and then pulled out in front of the bus. He says the other driver was also injured and taken to the hospital.
Musselman says all parents were notified of the crash. He says the school bus suffered minor damage, while the other vehicle involved suffered more significant damage.
