SOUTH FULTON COUNTY, Ga. — A crash involving a school bus left several children with minor injuries Wednesday afternoon.

Authorities told Channel 2 Action News there were 13 students on a school bus when a car crossed the center line and slammed into it.

A witness shot cellphone video as first responders cut a car open to rescue a driver.

Anderson said her employee and her brother, Richard Moore, were following behind her Wednesday afternoon when their Toyota Scion collided with a school bus, leaving a mass of crushed metal and shattered glass.

“It was so quick I can't even believe it," business owner Van Anderson said.

"They were all tucked in the car, mangled up. The jaws of life had to cut them out. Right now, they're unconscious. They're not doing well and we need everybody to pray right now," Anderson told Channel 2's Carl Willis.

Atlanta Public Schools confirmed the bus was carrying students from Therrell High School at the time.
