In the video, the school bus pushes the SUV onto the sidewalk and up against the front of an old cafe where Big George's Stop N Dine used to be.



The bus is owned by Durham School Services.

A representative with the company told Action News the bus was headed to Dobbins High School with five people on board - three students, the bus driver and an attendant.



We're told the two 10th-grade students and one 11th-grader who were on board were taken to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia with what appeared to be minor injuries. The two adults remained at the scene.
