The two left lanes of I-43 northbound are now reopened after a crash involving an unoccupied school bus.
According to a release from the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office, the crash happened just before 6:30 a.m. on Monday, northbound over a high-rise bridge on I43-NB near National.
MCSO says a car was driving in an unsafe manner, and struck another car, causing the struck car to veer into traffic and into the bus’s path, where the bus then collided with it.
The car that initiated the crash then fled the scene.
The driver of the school bus, a 30-year-old man was not injured.
The driver of the car that was struck, a 44-year-old man, was taken to the hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
The fleeing driver has not been identified. The highway was reopened about an hour later.
