A school bus with children on board was hit this morning by a car that ran a red light, according to the Nevada Highway Patrol.

The bus was carrying 11 children, but nobody was injured, Trooper Chelsea Webster said.

The bus was making a right turn onto Gibson Road in Henderson after exiting the westbound 215 Beltway when the accident happened at 8:34 a.m., Webster said.

The driver of a red sedan was headed north on Gibson Road and went through the red light, striking the left side of the bus, Webster said.
