Hall County School District officials said no one was injured when a school bus and two vehicles were involved in a wreck on I-985 Friday morning.

The accident happened around 6:30 a.m., according to a statement from school district spokesman Gordon Higgins.

The first collision caused the bus to hit another vehicle that was traveling southbound on I-985. The bus and that third vehicle then hit the southbound guard cables on the the highway.

There were no students on the bus at the time of the crash.
