Maryland Transit Administration bus collides with cars then a building, leaving at least 17 injured -
At around 10:15 a.m., the MTA bus hit a black Lexus, proceeding to then strike a Nissan SUV followed by a building in the 500 block of West Franklin Street, which then partially collapsed.
A witness to the crash claimed that the black Lexus ran a red light before striking a traffic pole. The bus swerved out of the way before swerving back and striking the Nissan and the building, according to the witness. “This bus driver here saved a lot of lives. We were at the light, and he went into the building. If he wouldn’t have went into the building, he would have smashed into all of us. We were the third car down,” witness Renee Bunch, who was sitting with her mother and infant daughter at the red light at North Paca and West Franklin Street,Fire officials initially evacuated the building the bus crashed into, fearing the impact compromised the structure, but it was less severe than feared.
The injuries incurred are not believed to be life-threatening — one of the 17 people injured refused treatment, to the Baltimore Banner. No pedestrians or apartment building occupants were among the injured, police said.• Brad Matthews can be reached at
