MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A child who was riding a scooter was struck by a bus Wednesday morning in northwest Miami-Dade, first responders confirmed to Local 10 News.
The crash was reported just before 6:30 a.m. in the area of Northwest 122nd Street and 27th Avenue, near a school bus transportation center.
Surveillance video obtained by Local 10 News shows the bus about to turn onto 27th Avenue.
The scooter rider and bus driver both stop. But just as the child on the scooter kicked off, the bus rolled forward, striking the scooter.
The child was seen limping off the roadway as someone exited the bus to check on them.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue officials told Local 10 that they transported the child to a trauma center after the crash.
According to a nearby business owner, this isn’t the first time an accident has occurred in front of the transportation center, as a scooter was struck by a bus just a couple months ago.
No other details were immediately released.
