THUNDER BAY -- A 64-year-old bus driver has been charged after a collision between a school bus and pedestrian Friday morning.

An ambulance brought the woman to the hospital where she has since been released. Her injuries were described as being minor.

The bus driver and his student passengers reported no injuries as a result of the incident.
