MacArthur High School student speaks out
A MacArthur High School student told KSAT that she was exiting the school bus when the crash happened.
“It sounded like a bang, and then my ears cancelled out, and then I turned to my left and saw it,” said Ariana Solis.
Solis said the school bus stopped on the westbound lanes of North Loop 410 between Perrin Beitel and Starcrest Drive.
“I was just shocked,” said Solis.
Solis said the area where the crash happened is their designated school bus stop.
She was waving goodbye to the bus driver when the sedan slammed into the back of the school bus, Solis shared with KSAT.
“I hope that guy’s family is OK,” said Solis. “I didn’t hear any speeding. It just crashed. That’s what I heard.”
