SPOKANE VALLEY -- An East Valley school bus with children on their way to school slid off an icy road near Newman Lake and hit a tree.

It happened north of the intersection of Trent and Harvard at about 7:30 Wednesday morning.

Emergency crews told our crew on the scene one student suffered a minor injury, and was treated at the scene.

The bus slid off in treacherous conditions that made it difficult for emergency crews to access the scene.  Firefighters used four-wheel drive vehicles to transfer students from the accident side to another bus.  Parents picked up some of the other students after the accident.
