East Irondequoit, N.Y. — At least one bullet struck a school bus full of students Monday morning in Upstate New York.
An East Irondequoit bus was ferrying ten high school-aged students to school around 7:40 a.m. when a projectile hit the side windows, the New York State Police said. The “possible” shooting happened on State Route 104 near Portland Ave in East Irondequoit, troopers said.
No one was injured.
The bus was bringing the students to the Aquinas Institute of Rochester, a private Catholic school in Rochester, East Irondequoit Superintendent Mary E. Grow said in a statement. The bullet shattered two of the bus’ windows, she said.
