Berkeley ,CA :School bus taking children on field trip crashes on freeway, leaving 12 with minor injuries on Monday ,August 10th 2015

The California Highway Patrol says a crash involving a school bus has left at least 12 children with minor injuries such as bruises and bloody noses.

Officer Sean Wilkenfeld said the bus was carrying about 50 between the ages of 5 and 15 when the accident happened on Interstate 80 in Berkeley on Monday morning.

Wilkenfeld says the children were on their way from Berkeley to a park in Oakland when the bus rear-ended a car, setting off a chain reaction of collisions with four other vehicles.

Four adults on the bus and some of the children were taken to a local hospital for further evaluation while paramedics from the Berkeley Fire Department treated the least serious injuries on-site.

Wilkenfeld says CHP officers are contacting parents to see if they want to pick up their children.
