A school bus overturned in Maryland with children inside, said officials on Nov. 7. Three suffered minor injuries.

The Washington Post reported that at least 12 children in all were on the bus in Anne Arundel County, and the crash occurred at around 7 a.m. local time.

Anne Arundel County Fire officials told WUSA that the bus driver, a bus aide, a student, and the driver of the SUV were taken to Baltimore Washington Medical Center with minor injuries. But WTOP reported that none of the 11 students on board the bus were hurt.

No other information is available at this time.

Helicopter video footage showed officials pulling the bus upright after a period of time.

School Bus Driver Tries to Enter Flooded Road, Gets Swept

Several days ago, a video posted by Texas officials shows the moment a school bus was swept away in floodwaters in Williamson County.
The dashboard camera showed the driver, identified as Nathan DeYoung, entering a flooded roadway before floating down the creek, KXAN reported.

“The Leander Police Department has elected to release a portion of the forward-facing video from the bus in an effort to illustrate the dangers of attempting to drive across a low-water crossing during flood conditions,” police told the station. The incident took place Oct. 16.

DeYoung was fired after the incident.
