RAYMORE, MO (KCTV) -
A Ray-Pec school bus driver was injured when a school bus crashed into a snow bank on the highway.
None of the 30 Raymore-Peculiar East Middle School students on board Bus 46 were injured. The bus slid off the road onto a snowy shoulder at 58 Highway and Ward Road in Raymore.
Chopper 5 flew over the accident scene where the bus was slightly tipped. A wall of snow kept the bus from completely tipping over.
Crews had to help the students crawl out through windows. Another bus arrived on the scene to take the students home.
"Thanks to the quick response from Raymore police, South Metro Fire Protection District, Cass County Sheriff's Department, Missouri Highway Patrol and Apple Bus Co. representatives," the district said in a statement. "They joined school district administrators and middle school administrators at the scene."
