A child has very serious injuries after he was hit by a Jefferson County Public School bus Monday morning near Luhr Elementary School in the Highview neighborhood.
Louisville Metro police officers were called just after 8 a.m. to an accident on Fegenbush Lane and Hollow Creek Road. They found a young child who had been hit by a school bus that was heading south.
A representative for Jefferson County Public Schools said the child who was injured is a second grader who attends the school and that there were no students on the school bus.
The bus driver stayed after the accident happened and the child was taken to Norton Children’s Hospital, where he is in critical but stable condition.
The LMPD Traffic Unit is currently investigating. Police said the child was with his father and sibling and he may have darted in front of the bus. There wasn’t traffic guard there at the intersection since the one who is usually there was reportedly on bereavement leave.
