A school bus belonging to Gloucester County Public Schools was involved in a two-vehicle accident last Thursday and the state police said no injuries were reported. Rescue was called to the scene as a precaution.

Sgt. J.A. Teagle of the Gloucester Area State Police Office said the accident occurred at about 6:46 a.m. last Thursday on Dogwood Trail at Cypress Trail in Gloucester.

Teagle said the bus was northbound on Dogwood Trail when it was struck by a pickup truck attempting to make a right turn onto Dogwood. He said the truck struck the rear wheel of the bus on the driver’s side. 

He estimated damages between the two vehicles at $1,500. He said the back wheel damage led to the bus having to be towed from the scene. The driver and eight passengers were onboard the bus, but no injuries were reported.

Teagle said the driver of the pickup truck was charged with failing to yield the right of way.  ...
