ANNA - At least 14 Anna student were injured after a bus crashed into a telepone pole at about 4 p.m. Wednesday along White Road and FM 455.

The bus jumped a curb, crossed a daycare center parking lot and struck a pole, police said. The front of the bus was damaged.

Thirty-two middle school and high school students were on board bus number 68, according to reports. The bus is part of First Student, which is the company Anna uses for bus services.
