A man was killed Monday after his SUV collided with a school bus in Minnetonka.

The Minnesota State Patrol is investigating the crash that happened just before 4 p.m. on westbound Hwy. 62 near Shady Oak Road.

The bus driver and 22 children on board were uninjured.

The other driver, a 57-year-old Burnsville man, lost control of his Isuzu Rodeo, struck a concrete wall and then collided with the bus, according to the agency. His identity will be release pending notification to family.
