HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) - Police in Hagerstown say none of the students aboard a Head Start bus was hurt when a car ran a red light and hit the bus in the right front fender.
Spokeswoman Heather Aleshire says the driver of the car, a Nissan Sentra, was taken to a hospital with minor injuries after the crash shortly before 8 a.m. Tuesday a few blocks east of the city center.
Aleshire says the car driver is 47-year-old Nora Fitzgerald of Hagerstown. She says Fitzgerald has been charged with failing to stop at a red signal and failing to control her speed to avoid a collision.
Paul Pittman of Head Start of Washington County says there were 14 children on the bus. He credits their lack of injuries to the seatbelts they wore.
