There were several children in the bus at the time of the crash. The driver of the bus and all the children remained uninjured. Officials transported them on a new bus and they were taken to their school, where counselors were waiting for them. It is unknown why Gomez hit his motorcycle and if speed was involved in the crash.
An investigation continues.
