Phoenix, AZ — Two children sustained minor injuries after being involved in a two-vehicle collision while on board their school bus. The automobile accident occurred at the intersection of 43rd and Northern avenues at around 3:30 p.m. in Phoenix, as reported by ABC 15.

Officials reported that there were 15 children on the bus when the collision occurred. Details about the crash and what exactly occurred wasn’t immediately available.

An Air15 video depicted firefighters taking children off of the bus in wheelchairs.

Two children on the bus sustained minor injuries in the crash. Officials reported that none of the children had been taken to the hospital for treatment yet.
