A man is now in custody after reportedly assaulting an Embark bus driver, causing the bus to crash into a building in NW Oklahoma City.

OKC Police say a couple of people on the bus were injured.

"The driver was injured and taken to a local hospital (with) minor injuries at this time, stable condition," said Lt. Jeff Cooper with OKCPD.

According to the Oklahoma City Police Department, they responded to an accident involving a bus running into a business off N. Western Ave. & Britton Rd. at around 2:20 on Saturday afternoon.

"When they arrived, they found that the subject actually assaulted the bus driver, causing him to leave the roadway and enter the Britton lumber building," Cooper said.

Police say a passenger on an Embark bus traveling south on N. Western Ave. asked the bus driver to let him off at the intersection near Britton & Western, and when the bus driver told him he could not do that, things escalated. "The suspect then began punching the bus driver in the face and removed him from the driver's seat," said Cooper, "This caused the bus to leave the roadway and run into the Britton Lumber business."

Oklahoma City Police say people were inside the business when the crash happened.

Cooper said, "There were two people inside Britton Lumber. They were on the other side of the building when the bus made contact with it, so they heard the collision, but they were not injured."
