MARIETTA, Ga. — A Marietta City school bus was involved in a crash Friday morning.

Police said a child in a car involved in the crash was airlifted to Scottish Rite Hospital.

Fifteen of the students on board the bus complained of injuries and were taken to Kennestone Hospital, along with the school bus driver. The hospital said all patients from the bus were in stable condition, and several have been discharged.
