Three people were injured, including a six-year-old student, in a school bus crash on October 21. The bus was transporting eight students to Little Britain Elementary School and was traveling eastbound on Route 207 in New Windsor when it was hit by a commercial tree service truck that had passed the double yellow line while going westbound, the new Windsor Police and Washingtonville Central School District said. 

The fire department and EMS team also responded to the scene, shortly before 8:30 a.m. According to the police they managed to extricate the bus and truck drivers and a female student who was sitting behind the bus driver. The three of them were taken to a hospital; the drivers were in critical condition and the student, although in a critical state, was stable.

According to the school district, the seven other students on the bus were able to walk off on their own. They were also taken to St. Luke’s Hospital in Newburgh for observation. After their treatment, they were released. 

The police continue investigating the school bus crash. They said a third vehicle was involved in the collision but didn’t share any further information. For now, the identities of the injured victims aren’t shared with the public, though the injured girl’s uncle said that the girl was six-year-old and practiced yoga breaths to stay calm while the authorities were trying to free her from the scene.

Being injured in an accident can drastically change life as the person knows it. Facing medical treatments, recovery, medical fees and lost wages become the new reality. If you were involved in an accident in New York, besides seeking medical help, make sure you contact a car accident attorney to help you file for a compensation claim. Cellino Law is here for you.

    Testimonials

    • We'd like to thank you for all the assistance and time you spent on our case. Your professionalism and honesty will always be appreciated. The staff was always courteous and we were always impressed with your accountability. Your passion and dedication will never be forgotten, nor will you.

      Sarah

    • This letter is to thank Ms. Diane D’Andrea, assistant to Mr. George Gridelli, Attny for all the hard work, dedication, and attentiveness she showed during the representation of my case. She was always cheerful and ready to help in whatever way she could. All messages left for Mr. Gridelli were always relayed and Mr. Gridelli always promptly returned our calls. She was a very competent assistant. Cellino Law has proven to be a model of what legal representation should be. Throughout the 6 ½ years of this case, I have heard many horror stories from people with “bad lawyer stories.” We consider ourselves to be very lucky to have chosen Cellino Law and will always recommend you to those looking for good, honest representation with a personal touch.

    • I am writing this letter to say how much I appreciate your services pertaining to my case. Your injury attorney took a hands-on approach and left me fully informed at all times as to where my case was going as well as how much ground we had to cover; leaving the final decisions in my hands but making sure that I knew all of the risks involved in the choices. I have dealt with a few law firms in my life on various different cases and this is the first time that I never had to call and/or track down my lawyer… because of this, I have and will continue to recommend Cellino Law to my friends and associates.

    • Cellino Law and more specifically my attorney, Gregory V. Pajak, Managing Attorney, and as a whole the Cellino Law Firm and its organization. This is by far one of the most professional law firms and attorney I have ever engaged with and retained in my 35 years. The level of professionalism goes beyond words, the care and constant engagement with me as the client was touching. I was never ever just treated as simply a CASE with potentially a significant dollar number attached to my file. I was engaged regularly, Tracey (Ass’t) and Greg always made sure to remain constant, as well as consistent in overseeing that my case was handled properly and that it did matter in many ways - ensuring that the end result(s) would be fair and reasonable to my case/injury. The regular follow-up calls were very satisfying, knowing that you’re involved in your case matters significantly AND always. One of my main items to recognize Cellino Law and Gregory is that whenever I called, I was able to get through to speak directly to my Lawyer and he would answer any if not all of my questions in a very professional and genuinely caring manner. I always felt cared for and protected legally and more importantly, I was made feel as a human being that was being cared for and always keeping me abreast of all matters connected to the case. There was never a point I felt let down, on the contrary -the level of service was “STELLAR”. Greg is the consummate professional, a ‘role model’, if you will, for what other attorneys should strive to become when dealing with their clients.
