School Bus Plows Into Long Island Home

Five students ages 5 through 8 had the scariest ride of their young lives this afternoon when their school bus crashed into a house across from their school in Syosset, NY. Officials say that as the driver was leaving the St. Edward the Confessor school, he “apparently lost consciousness and drove right into the home through the foundation.” The driver is being treated for non-life-threatening injuries, and miraculously the five children were unharmed. No one was home at the time but the two family dogs, and the homeowner reports, “the eldest was a little shaken up but they’re okay.”
