Wakaw school bus driver flees scene after collision with boy on bike

A school bus driver in Wakaw faces a charge of failing to remain at the scene of an accident after a collision with a boy on a bicycle.
 
RCMP say the collision happened Thursday in Wakaw.

Police say it appears the seven-year-old boy and the bus were travelling in the same direction a block north of the school.

A passerby took the boy to the school where he was treated by EMS before being airlifted to a hospital in Saskatoon.

Police say the boy was reported to have been wearing a helmet, but there is no word on his condition.

A 55-year-old man from Wakaw is to appear in provincial court on July 12.
