LOWNDES COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI) – Only a few months into the school year and another driver has hit a Lowndes County school bus.

Lowndes county superintendent Dr. Sam Allison tells WCBI the bus was rear-ended at a stop sign at the intersection of Stadium and Yorkville Road.
No injuries have been reported from this wreck.
This is the third incident involving a Lowndes County school bus since the start of the school year.
Back in August two other buses were involved in wrecks.
The first one happened on Jess-Lyons Road after a woman driving under the influence rear-ended the bus then left the scene of the accident.
The second crash occurred on Highway 69 south when a school bus and car side swiped each other while traveling in opposite directions.
No life-threatening injuries were reported from either incident.
