Const. Sydney Jones says it was a “devastating incident” in what she calls a tight-knit community.
She says investigators are still piecing together exactly what happened and no charges have been laid.
Jones could not say whether there were children on the bus at the time of the crash but did say the driver was uninjured.
The section of St. Joseph Street near the crash site was closed for about six hours as police investigated.
