DUMFRIES, Va. – Students from Mary Williams Elementary School aboard charter buses headed back to the school this afternoon were involved in a crash on Interstate 95 south of Fredericksburg, according to Prince William schools officials.
No students were injured, but one parent on the bus was taken to a hospital with an arm injury.
Parents are asked to pick up their students at the school about 4:50 p.m. when the buses are expected to return to the school.
The buses were involved in a chain-reaction crash on I-95, and were headed back from the Richmond Science Center, said schools spokeswoman Irene Cromer.
Virginia Department of Transportation officials reported a crash at mile post 119 on the northbound lanes of the highway just before 3 p.m. It’s not clear if this is the same crash the buses were involved in.
More as we have it.
