TRAFFIC NEWS: HUMBLE STUDENTS HURT IN COLLISION WITH SCHOOL BUS

by Bruce Westbrook

For the second day in a row, some Houston area students were injured in a collision involving a school bus — except this time they weren’t in the bus.

The students were from Atascocita High School in the Humble Independent School District. They were riding in a vehicle in the 16400 block of West Lake Houston Parkway in the vicinity of Breakwater Path when it was involved in a crash around 8 a.m. Tuesday.

Humble ISD officials said the high school students’ vehicle collided with another vehicle, and one of the vehicles then collided with a school bus taking students to Woodcreek Middle School.

No injuries were reported among the children on the school bus, and it’s not known if anyone in the third vehicle was injured. However, the three high school students in the other vehicle were transported to a hospital nearby. Their injury status and names have not been released.

On Monday, five students of elementary school age and younger were riding in an Aldine school bus when it was involved in a collision on I-45 North. Four were taken to a hospital with what were not believed to be serious injuries.
