Eleven people, including nine children, had to be taken to the hospital following a school bus accident in Jamaica Tuesday morning, officials said.
The crash happened at about 7:20 a.m. at Liberty Avenue and 183rd Street, according to the FDNY.
The bus, carrying nine students who attend various schools in Queens, was stopped at a traffic light when it was reportedly hit by a speeding car, Department of Education spokeswoman Marge Feinberg said.
All of the students, as well as the bus driver and a matron, were taken to Long Island Jewish Hospital for observation, according to Feinberg. There do not appear to be any serious injuries.
