14 Injured After Bus, Sedan Collide, Hitting Long Beach Restaurant

Long Beach, California: Fourteen people were injured when a bus and a sedan collided and crashed into a restaurant Thursday afternoon in Long Beach.

Long Beach police said the accident occurred around 3:15 p.m. near South Street and California Avenue.

A sedan allegedly ran a stop sign and collided with the side of a bus. The force of the impact sent the car in front of the bus as it drove off the roadway into a nearby restaurant.

The bus lodged the sedan into the side of the building and completely destroyed the storefront.

Firefighters arrived at the scene and used the jaws of life to extricate the driver and passenger of the sedan.

The bus had 11 passengers and the driver on board.

All the sedan and bus occupants suffered injuries ranging from minor to critical. Ten of them were transported to hospitals for treatment. At least four of them required advanced life support.

Police said no one was in the restaurant at the time of the collision. Two people who live in the apartment above the restaurant were displaced because of the damage caused to the building. The residents were being helped by the Red Cross.
