WATCH HERERescuers could be seen surrounding the car involved, which came to rest next to the bus. They appeared to be focused on that car, eventually pulling an 18-year-old woman from it.
The "extensive extrication" took nearly two hours, New Castle County Paramedics spokesperson Jamielee Majewski said in a news release.
"She was treated by the New Castle County Paramedics for extremity and internal injuries," the news release said. "She was transported to Christiana Hospital on board Delaware State Police Helicopter in critical condition."
None of the students -- ages 14 to 17 -- on the bus were hurt, paramedics said.
However, the 75-year-old bus driver was treated for neck, back and possibly internal injuries, medics said. He was listed in serious condition after being medevac'd from the scene.
