Sixteen people were hospitalized after a bus ferrying a group of children with special needs got into a head-on crash Tuesday in Little Village.

The bus was headed north on South Kedzie Avenue when it collided with a southbound Subaru Outback.

“We don’t have any information on how it happened but it looked like somebody was moving at a pretty good clip,” a Chicago Fire Department spokesman said at the scene.

The drivers from both vehicles were critically injured; the children had non-life-threatening injuries, the spokesman said.
