A school bus with as many as 20 students on board overturned southwest of Treynor this (Friday) afternoon. KETV in Omaha reports the accident happened at the rural intersection of 290th and Delta Avenue around 2:30 p.m. No students were injured. There were concerns the school bus driver was trapped in the wreckage, but the driver made it out shortly after the accident.

Rescue crews from Oakland, Underwood, Lewis Township, Treynor, Carson and Minden responded to the scene. All units except for those from Treynor were ordered to return to quarters as it became clear there were no injuries, and Life Net helicopter, which had been put on stand-by, was told to “stand-down” at 2:38-p.m. Treynor Fire and Rescue returned to base at 3:20-p.m.
