Huge Utility Pole Ends Up Atop School Bus After Crash in New Jersey

There was no immediate information on possible injuries

A school bus crashed into a utility pole in New Jersey Thursday, causing major damage to the power lines, video from Chopper 4 shows. 

Four Newark Academy students were on the bus, which was operated by Livingston Township, at the time of the 8 a.m. accident on Westmount Drive in Livingston. They were not hurt.

Footage from Chopper 4 shows the bus mostly off the roadway, a giant power pole resting atop the roof. Live wires appeared to be down all around it.

The bus remained at the scene for hours as authorities investigated.
