HOWELL, N.J. (AP) - Authorities say no students were injured when a mini school bus struck a utility pole in central New Jersey.

But it’s not yet known what caused the single-vehicle crash in Howell, which occurred around 2:50 p.m. Monday on Route 547 in the Monmouth County community.

The bus was carrying six students from Memorial Elementary School. They and a bus aide all walked away unharmed from the crash, but the bus driver - whose name was not released - suffered a hand injury.



The crash caused extensive damage to the bus.
