A school bus driver was seriously injured in an accident Wednesday afternoon in a rural section of Baltimore County, a school district spokesman said.

Nine students were also hurt in the crash, which happened in Parkton at 2:37 p.m., said Mychael Dickerson, a spokesman for the school district.

Dickerson said the bus was carrying 43 middle and high school students when it overturned on York Road. It’s unclear what caused the accident, he said.

The bus crashed near Hereford High School and Bunker Hill Road, fire and police officials said.

Students who were not injured were taken back to Hereford High School to be picked up by their families, Dickerson said. He added that the school system has had no major school bus accidents this year.
