March 6, 2007

KELLER, Texas — Seven children in a day care school bus, the bus' driver and the driver of a car were injured Tuesday when their vehicles collided, Keller police said.

Witnesses told investigators that the woman driving the car appeared to have run a red light at an intersection. The 14-seat bus ended up on its side.

The nine victims were transported to Fort Worth-area hospitals. Their conditions weren't immediately released.

Seven kindergarten-aged children were taken to Cook Children's Medical Center. Four of the seven were treated and released, William Perryman, the owner of the Primrose School of Keller said in a news release. Three were admitted to the hospital, medical center spokeswoman Winifred King said.

The two adults were taken to Harris Methodist Fort Worth hospital, Keller police Lt. Brenda Slovak said. She did not know their conditions.

The bus was carrying the students to the school at the time of the accident, Merryman said.
