Branch falls on bus
Albert Gallatin Area School District officials said one child received a scratch and no one else was injured when a large tree branch shattered part of the windshield on a school bus carrying fifth-grade students from D. Ferd Elementary School.
The branch fell on the bus around 11 a.m. Tuesday. The children were safely evacuated to another bus and returned to D. Ferd Swaney Elementary School. Officials were expected to notify all parents of students on the bus.
According to officials, the bus was traveling on Dugan’s Hill, a rural road near the George J. Plava Elementary School. The bus was returning students to school from a junior high visitation day at Albert Gallatin North, officials said.
