Nottawa school bus involved in crash

No students were injured after the school bus they were in was struck by a vehicle earlier this week in Colon Township.

Nottawa Community School Superintendent Jerome Wolff issued a statement detailing the situation, which occurred shortly after 7 a.m. Monday.

Wolff said the driver of the bus was exiting a private driveway on M-86 near Lepley Road when it was struck. Wolff did not indicate whether it was struck on the driver’s side or passenger’s side.

A Nottawa School employee stopped to assist passengers with exiting the bus. Wolff said evacuation protocol was followed and the process was executed in a textbook manner.

The bus driver suffered minor injuries and was evaluated at a local hospital.

No information about the other driver was included in a media release.
