They say a Honda CRV in the northbound lane drove straight into a GO bus travelling south.

Police say there were 18 passengers on the bus, and six people — five passengers and the bus driver — were taken to a hospital for minor injuries.


Investigators say a 56-year-old man from Omemee faces impaired driving charges and has had his driver’s licence temporarily suspended.

He has since been released from custody and will appear in court at a later date.
