A male driver of a school bus died on Wednesday, with several children injured, after the vehicle hit a tree in the Australian state of Victoria.
Police said in a statement that emergency services are currently working on the site of the fatal bus crash in Kilmore, a town located about 60 km north of the state capital Melbourne.
Just after 3:30 p.m. local time, the school bus was believed to have left the Wandong Road and struck a tree.
The 65-year-old male driver was declared deceased at the scene.
Among approximately 30 children aboard, some suffered minor injuries while one had serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
“The exact cause of the crash is being investigated and roads in the area will be closed for some time,’’ said the Victoria Police.

May his soul rest in peace
I wish the children quick recovery
