No serious injuries were reported following a school bus accident Tuesday afternoon on Farnum Road in Belleville.

Ambulance crews responded to Farnham Road in the Kipling Drive area around 3pm after a bus reportedly hit a water mast.

The bus found itself on one side of the ditch with wires laid through it.

Police in Belleville could not confirm to Quinte News how many people were on the bus, but scanner reports show that there were two people on board.

Hydro One is on site.

Belleville police say Farnham Road is closed from Oakwood Lane to Cannifton Road and that the closure will remain in place for some time as Hydro One crews work to restore hydro equipment.
