\u201cThe truck went in front of the bus, causing a collision,\u201d Bodily said. \u201cAt this time it doesn\u2019t appear [that] alcohol or drugs are a factor.\u201d<\/p>\n

The truck\u2019s driver was transported to Antelope Valley Hospital with critical injuries, but is expected to survive, according to Bodily.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were three passengers on the bus who were transported with minor injuries,\u201d Bodily said. \u201cThe rest of the 15 occupants of the bus appeared to have minor or no injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n

Authorities did not name the truck\u2019s driver.<\/p>\n

The incident remains under investigation, and no further information was immediately available Monday night.<\/p>\n
