INDIANAPOLIS: An Indianapolis elementary school principal was killed and two students were seriously injured when a bus suddenly lurched forward and struck them in front of the school Tuesday, authorities said.
Susan Jordan, the principal of Amy Beverland Elementary School on the city’s far northeast side, was killed and two 10-year-old children were hospitalized with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, they said.
Buses were lined up outside the school when the accident happened about 2:45 p.m., Indianapolis Fire Department Capt. Rita Reith said.
“At some point the stationary bus lurched forward and jumped the curb. The bus was not moving at the time directly before it jumped the curb,” Reith said.
