GREAT MILLS --- Two persons in a passenger car headed north on Rt. 5 at about 3:15 pm on Wednesday, Feb. 18th, were seriously injured when a St. Mary's County school bus, operated by Robert Raley, 78, suddenly pulled out on the highway without yielding the right of way.
There were no injuries to the 15 children from Little Flower School who were riding on the bus with Raley.
Firefighters from Valley Lee (2nd District) Fire and Rescue were assisted by Leonardtown Volunteer Fire Department and the Leonardtown Volunteer Rescue Squad. Officials from the county's parochial school bus office were on the scene and Raley was charged in the crash by Maryland State Trooper Andrew J. Rossignol.
