Colorado State Patrol reported this morning a “very serious accident” involving a Poudre School District bus at LCR 15 and LCR 82 (Buckeye Road). Several Denver TV stations are reporting there were 9 students on the bus and 3 were injured, but the extent of the injuries is not known.

The bus was carrying Wellington Middle School and Eyestone Elementary students.

Images from live broadcasts show that a car rear-ended the bus and slide under the bus. No word on injuries to the driver.

We’ll update this as we hear more.
