A man behind the wheel of a sedan that crashed into a school bus Friday in Indiana County was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence of a controlled substance.

State police said no injuries were reported among the driver and 13 students who were aboard the bus when the crash occurred shortly after 2 p.m. on Route 286 in White Township.

Police didn’t name the 31-year-old man from Indiana who was driving the sedan. He suffered minor injuries and was released pending blood test results, police said.

The sedan was headed west on Route 286, near Hamill Road, when it crossed the center line and struck the westbound school bus, according to police.

River Valley School District, located in the Blairsville area, tweeted that the bus was carrying district students who attend the Indiana County Technology Center. Alternate transportation was provided to bring the students back to the district.
