March 24, 2007

JACKSON COUNTY - One student was taken to Singing River Hospital with minor injuries Friday after a car ran into the back of a school bus on Sarracenia Road, just north of Greenfield Road, Jackson County Sheriff Mike Byrd confirmed.

Byrd said the Moss Point school bus was carrying about 20 students when the accident happened after 3 p.m. Friday. He said two students complained of pain but were not hospitalized and were released to their parents.

No other injuries were reported. Jackson County Sheriff's Deputy John Sigalis is handling the investigation. Byrd said details about the accident wouldn't be available until the department's investigation was complete and an accident report turned in, probably sometime Saturday.

Byrd said none of the injuries was life threatening and the investigation is ongoing.
