Bus driver suffered medical episode before crashing into north Houston business, METRO says

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Officials say a METRO bus ran off the road and hit a building in north Houston Thursday morning.

METRO says it happened off the feeder road of the I-45 North Freeway near West Road at about 1:15 a.m.

Authorities told ABC13 that the driver suffered a medical problem while driving and crashed into a fence before hitting a window tinting business, which appeared to be closed at the time.

METRO said the driver was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and no one else was on the bus.
