Authorities are investigating what caused a crash between a bus driving a pair of Boston Public Schools students and another vehicle on the Riverway Tuesday morning.

State Police and Boston EMS responded to the crash between the bus, a 2023 Ford Econoline, and a 2023 Toyota Camry sedan around 7:55 a.m. Three parked and unoccupied vehicles were also involved in the crash, said Dave Procopio, spokesman for the Massachusetts State Police.

The crash caused minor injuries to a passenger in the Camry, a 51-year-old Brockton woman who was transported to Beth Israel Hospital for treatment, Procopio said. The driver did not suffer injuries.

Two students on the bus, ages 15 and 17, and the driver, a 53-year-old Dorchester woman, were evaluated and medically cleared on scene.

The bus and one of the parked vehicles, a Tesla, were towed from the scene which was cleared at 9:30 a.m.

The crash remains under investigation.
