Student Injured, 3 Hospitalized In School Bus Crash In Bergen County: Police

NEW MILFORD, NJ — A school bus carrying an eight-year-old student and two adults collided with a minivan at a New Milford intersection around 9 a.m. Thursday, Police Chief Brian Clancy said.

The student and adults sustained minor non-life threatening injuries, as did one of the three occupants of the minivan, Clancy said. The child was picked up at the scene by a parent, while the three injured adults were taken to a local hospital, Clancy said.

Following the crash, the minivan driver was issued four summonses for failure to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of Boulevard and Graphic Boulevard, police said.

This is the second serious crash involving a school bus this week in Bergen County.

Six people, including two children, were hospitalized Monday after a school bus apparently ran a red light and collided with other vehicles at a Ridgewood intersection, Patch reported.
