MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee Police say the driver in the black car that t-boned a Milwaukee County bus this weekend, blew a red light and was driving without a license.
Police also say the 23-year-old woman who blew the red light at Sherman and Burleigh had a 2-year-old boy in her car. That baby is in critical condition. The ring camera at this business captured it all.

Daycare owner Tina Olden hears screeches and bangs outside her window, all of the time. “There’s about 2-3 accidents a week on that intersection right there," she says.
At about 9:16 p.m. Saturday, Oldon’s Ring camera video shows the light turn red about seven seconds before we see a black Nissan blow through the red light.
The only major injury reported by police was to a 2-year-old boy, who was a passenger in the suspect’s car. He was rushed to the hospital.
The 23-year-old woman behind the wheel was arrested for Driving Without a License, Causing Great Bodily Harm. She is expected to face a judge Tuesday. “More people should really take their time and stop running the lights that cause a lot of the accidents," Olden said.
Other drivers agree. Don Walker saw the aftermath himself Saturday night. “The car was basically into the bus you know, like the front of it. Everybody take their time you know everybody rushing to beat the light.”
Terry Davis, wearing a ‘Slow Down Milwaukee’ shirt, recently helped put up ‘Yield to Pedestrian’ signs at Sherman and Burleigh, which is right next to Sherman Park and The Boys & Girls Club. “Just be more careful and drive for others. And pay attention to where they’re going, and look both ways," said Davis.
