Two people were injured after a crash involving an ECAT bus in Escambia County on Friday morning, according to Florida Highway Patrol (FHP).
The crash happened on North L Street on West Jordan Street at around 11:30 a.m.
According to FHP, an ECAT bus driven by a 62-year-old Pensacola man was carrying two passengers, an 18-year-old Pensacola woman and a 58-year-old Pensacola man. The bus was traveling north on North L Street and approaching West Jordan Street.
