A Concord school bus that veered off the road Friday morning did not have any students on it and there were no injuries, according to Concord Police Department Deputy Chief John Thomas.

The incident involved a car and occurred at the intersection of Horseshoe Pond Lane and North State Street, virtually in front of the Concord Fire Department at approximately 8:30 a.m., according to Thomas. 

A photo taken from the scene showed considerable damage to the front of the bus.

“That was subsequent damage afterward when the bus went off the road,” Concord Fire Battalion Chief Tom Nault said. “It looks like it probably struck the traffic signal, but no damage was done to traffic signal.”

As of 10:30 a.m., the bus had been cleared from the scene, Nault said.
