MAPLE GROVE, Minn. — School bus safety is in the spotlight after 12 students were injured when one crashed in northern Minnesota Thursday morning.

Officials say a school bus for Cherry School, located in Iron, was on its route when a motorist ran a stop sign and struck the bus, causing it to roll. A dozen students were taken to the hospital and several others suffered injuries that did not require hospitalization.

Federal safety leaders say students are eight times safer riding a bus to school compared to other options.
