Mini-bus in accident
Two people were sent to the hospital Monday afternoon after a Regional Transportation Commission bus collided into a vehicle, Metro Police said.
A RTC mini-transit bus collided into a grey vehicle near the intersection of Stewart Avenue and Fogg Street – near Keller Middle School –about 2:30 p.m., according to Metro spokesman Bill Cassell.
The bus ended up on its side, Cassell added.
The driver and a passenger of the RTC bus were transported to University Medical Center with minor injuries, said Clark County spokeswoman Stacey Welling. The two were able to “self-extricate” themselves from the bus, she said.
No further details were immediately available. The accident is still under investigation, and the public is urged to avoid that area, Cassell said.
The RTC vehicle was struck by a car driven by a 17 year old boy that failed to comply with a stop sign. The boy was cited for his negligence. No serious injuries were sustained.
