Nearly a dozen children were hospitalized Wednesday in Collin County after a pickup truck crashed into the back of a Farmersville ISD school bus, state troopers say.

Texas DPS spokesman Sgt. Kyle Bradford said it happened at about 4:24 p.m. at Farm-to-Market Road 2194 at County Road 1661.

A Farmersville ISD bus with 48 children on board was stopped while dropping off a student when it was struck from behind by a Ford F-150 pickup truck.

Ten students on the bus and the driver of the pickup were taken to nearby hospitals. All had injuries that were not life-threatening, Bradford said.

The driver of the pickup will be ticketed, he added.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing.
