The bus was heading to the Athlos Leadership Academy charter school, which is about 4 miles north of the crash scene.
The SUV was eastbound on Brooklyn Boulevard, went through a red light at Regent Avenue and hit the bus, said Brooklyn Park Deputy Police Chief Mark Bruley.
All the injured were taken by ambulance to a hospital for treatment of noncritical injuries, Bruley said. Their identities were not released.
