May 08, 2023 Steve Schwaller

(Wallingford)– Two children were injured when a school bus and a semi collided back on May 2nd in Emmet county.

The Emmet County Sheriff’s Office says 43-year-old Travis Schueller of Armstrong was driving a 2022 Blue Bird school bus owned by the North Union School District. Deputies say Schueller stopped at a stop sign at the intersection of 240th Street and 490th Avenue when he pulled into the path of a 2019 International semi tractor trailer driven by 50-year-old Billy Long of Ruthven. The bus was struck near the center. It then overturned, coming to rest on the driver’s side.

Two children on the bus, ages 4 and 5, were taken by ambulance to Avera Holy Family Hospital in Estherville for treatment of non-incapacitating injuries.

Schueller was cited for failure to obey a stop sign.

The collision took place around 4:20 pm.
