HIGHBRIDGE, the Bronx — An MTA bus fell off of a Bronx overpass after the driver lost control Thursday night, according to police.

The FDNY said the call came in just before 11:10 p.m. for reports of a bus accident.

Several people were injured, officials said, with at least seven people taken to area hospitals.

The NYPD said each of the injured suffered minor injuries.

The bus appeared to be at least partly suspended off the overpass in the area of University Avenue and the Cross Bronx Expressway. Video showed one end of the bus was resting on its nose on the roadway below

Officials said the incident was a single-vehicle crash, and an investigation is under way as to whether it was a result of operator error or an equipment malfunction.

The bus is an articulated or slinky bus, with the "accordion" section at the edge of the overpass, causing half of the bus to become nearly perpendicular to the bridge.

This is a developing story.
