Three individuals were taken by ambulance from the scene of Wednesday morning's accident involving a Dexter school bus and a passenger van.
The accident, which occurred when the school bus, headed east, struck the van in the intersection of One Mile Road and Grant Street around 7:45 a.m. The passenger van was being driven by Larissa Hurley of Dexter. She and two passengers, ages 14 and 15, were transported to Missouri Southern Healthcare with minor injuries and later released. No school children aboard the bus sustained injuries.

I'm glad none of these folks were seriously injured. I imagine it was frightening for everyone involved.
