Woman, 22, Killed After Crash Into Denton ISD School Bus

One student from Braswell High School in Denton suffered minor injuries in the crash

Police said a woman was killed when she crashed into a Denton Independent School District bus in McKinney Thursday night.

McKinney police said the woman, identified Friday as 22-year-old Caitlyn Haynes, was driving a Jeep at a high rate of speed on westbound U.S. 380 when she crashed into a bus stopped at a red light near Wisteria Way at about 11:15 p.m.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene, according to officials.

A student who was near the back of the bus suffered injuries that police said were not life-threatening and was transported to a hospital as a precaution.

District spokesman Mario Zavala said the bus was transporting the Braswell High School tennis team home from a tennis tournament. Another bus picked them up after the crash.

Westbound U.S. 380 was closed at Community Drive while police investigated the crash.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing, McKinney police said Friday afternoon.
