INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) —  A bus from Washington Township Schools crashed into a church near Massachusetts Avenue on Tuesday afternoon.

The bus, carrying students and adults from Greenbriar Elementary School, crashed into Roberts Park United Methodist Church at Delaware and Vermont Streets just before 1 p.m.

The bus collided with a tow truck at the intersection and continued on into the building, reports WISH-TV.
