15 people are injured after an incident on a school bus at Ocean Avenue and Dorchester Road this morning, says the FDNY. They responded to a 7:22am call to find 14 patients with minor injuries and one with serious injuries. 10 patientshave been taken to Coney Island and Kings County Hospital, with five treated on scene.
A spokesman for the FDNY says a firecracker may have been involved, though he cannot 100% confirm. However neighbor Kerri MacDonald, who lives nearby, was told by a reporter that a student may have set off fireworks inside the bus.
