    The Chicago Medical Examiner’s Office has just confirmed that one person has died as a result of the tragic bus crash during evening rush hour today at a busy Chicago intersection. A woman who apparently was struck by the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) bus has died. Eight others were injured and a person remains in critical condition this evening as four area hospitals were involved in treating people involved in this tragedy. Among those transported, according to media reports, included the bus driver, the only person on the bus at the time it struck pedestrians and four vehicles before jumping a curb and hitting a concrete wall. Many witnesses appeared shaken as they told the press and police what they observed. Many tried to help those who were hurt by the bus and apparently a few people were injured at the scene but refused treatment. The bus was removed from the scene about 8 p.m.
