7 injured as vehicle clips auto, then strikes bus
Seven people were hurt Monday morning after a speeding vehicle clipped another auto and then hit a Valley Metro bus, Glendale authorities said.
Assistant Fire Chief Chris DeChant said two of the victims were transported to John C. Lincoln North Mountain Hospital. Each of them had been in the two vehicles.
Two bus passengers were considered "minor-level patients," DeChant said. They were taken to Banner Thunderbird Medical Center.
The remaining three victims were also on the bus but reportedly refused medical attention.
DeChant said the collisions took place near 51st and Peoria avenues. The bus was westbound on Peoria Avenue, while the car that struck it was eastbound.
