A Chicago Transit Authority bus crashed into a house today on Chicago’s South Side. The incident, which occurred about 5:40 a.m., resulted in sending three Morgan Park people and the bus driver, to area hospitals.
The Pullman 111th/115th Street bus was traveling southbound when it struck a brick home at West 115th Street and South Vincennes Avenue, according to a CTA spokeswoman.
Emergency crews at the scene reportedly shut off all gas and electricity to the house. It was not confirmed if those injured were in the house, on the bus or pedestrians.
Photos from the scene indicate the bus was several feet into the house. Authorities are determining the structural damage to the house.
