Police: Kansas man struck by city bus

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Police say a man is in critical condition after being run over by a city transit bus in Planeview.

The Wichita Eagle reports the bus made a left turn Tuesday morning and struck 75-year-old Hai Huynh, who had been standing in the road near a curb and talking to a motorist.

Wichita police Lt. James Espinoza said the bus knocked Huynh down and then ran over “his lower extremities.” Huynh was taken to Wesley Medical Center for treatment.

City officials say the 51-year-old driver of the bus is currently on leave. Espinoza said an investigation is ongoing.
