Appeals panel reinstates lawsuit stemming from Holt school bus crash
LANSING — An appeals panel has reinstated a lawsuit contending a Holt Public Schools bus driver was negligent in a crash that seriously injured a 7-year-old boy in 2023. In an Oct. 23 ruling, the state Court of Appeals reversed an Ingham County Circuit Court ruling dismissing the case. The crash happened in October 2023 at the intersection of Harding Avenue and Schippell Street, police said at the time. School officials said the crash involved the Elliott Elementary School Route No. 5 bus. The boy was riding a bike westbound on the sidewalk along Harding when he went into the road and crashed into the side of the bus as the driver was turning south onto Schippell from westbound Harding, officials said. The boy was run over by the rear tires of the bus and suffered serious injuries, they said. The substitute bus driver had dropped off the boy at his assigned stop, and he followed the bus along its route on his bicycle, the three-judge appeals panel said in its ruling. "At one point when the bus was stopped, (the boy) got off his bicycle and approached the driver's side of the bus," the judges said. "He jumped up

Train carrying 4,000 gallons of diesel derails in North Toledo
A CSX Transportation container train derailed Friday afternoon in North Toledo. No one was injured and no hazardous materials leaked in the 4:15 p.m. derailment near Manhattan and Wallace boulevards, Assistant Chief John Kaminski of the Toledo Fire & Rescue Department said at the scene. But a locomotive that jumped the track had 4,000 gallons of diesel fuel on board, and that would need to be pumped out before emergency crews clear the scene, Chief Kaminski said. “We have a precautionary fire line set up in case something happens,” he said. A little more than an hour after the derailment, an environmental contractor had arrived to drain the engine of its fuel. The locomotive came to rest tilted, while three container platform cars behind it that also derailed remained upright. None of the freight in those containers contained anything dangerous, Chief Kaminski said. The only damage was to the track and railroad equipment. The derailment occurred at a junction where trains can change tracks, but it was not immediately known if that was a factor. Chief Kaminski said it would be up to CSX to determine the accident’s cause. Manhattan and nearby Suder Avenue were both closed near the derailment
