School Bus Involved in Crash in New Britain

One person had to be extricated from a car after colliding with a school bus carrying 25 students at Whiting and Glen streets in New Britain this morning, according to police and school officials.

The bus was on the way to New Britain High School and making a left turn when it collided with a vehicle that was coming down a hill, school officials said. The car hit the right front corner of the bus, damaging the bus fender and mirror.

Medics checked on the students and determined that none were seriously injured. Another bus was sent to pick up the students and bring them to school.

Emergency crews had to cut the roof off the car. School officials said they did not know if anyone in the car was injured.
