School Bus Crash on Roosevelt Blvd. Leaves 1 Hurt

1 child hospitalized after 2-vehicle accident

A school bus crashed in Northeast Philadelphia Thursday morning leaving one child in the hospital. It wasn't immediately clear what school that child was from or if the child was on the bus or in the car at the time of the crash.

The two-vehicle wreck happened around 8 a.m. on the inner lanes of the northbound Roosevelt Boulevard at Fulmer Street.

It was unclear how many kids were on board the Atlantic Express yellow bus at the time of the crash. NBC10 is waiting on word from the school district as to how many kids were on the bus when it crashed.

Philadelphia Police tell NBC10 that one child was hurt and taken to a nearby hospital. It is unknown how old that child is or the extent of his or her injuries.

Traffic appeared to be getting by in one lane after the crash.
