The intersection the students were injured is a well-lit designated crosswalk.

Hitchcock ISD police and other law enforcement responded to the crash. Authorities said the driver, who appeared to be dropping off her child at the high school, remained at the scene and was not cited.

All three students, two adults, and one minor student were taken to a hospital, and their families were notified.
