“They may have hit their heads in the crash. There wasn’t anybody who had any evident or obvious injuries, but we’ve had some complaints of back pain or ‘I bumped my head,’ and we wanted to make sure that those were fully checked out for concussions or anything more serious, and so far, so good,” Howard County police spokesperson Sherry Llewellyn said.

All the other students were reunited with their families after some received treatment at the scene of the crash. The driver, 30, was not injured. Police said there’s no indication that she was impaired, but investigators are still looking at whether speed was a factor in the crash.

No other vehicles were involved.
