PHOENIX, ARIZONA BUS AND DUMP TRUCK COLLISION.  A DUMP TRUCK EXITED A NEARBY CONSTRUCTION ZONE AND HIT THE FRONT, RIGHT BUMPER OF THE BUS AS THE DUMP TRUCK ATTEMPTED TO MERGE WITH NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC


A collision between a Valley Metro city bus and a dump truck restricted northbound traffic on Seventh Avenue near Campbell Avenue Monday afternoon, but the wreck took a more vulgar turn when a flasher appeared at the scene.
Shortly after the Monday afternoon crash in central Phoenix a man ran out from behind a nearby row of bushes and flashed everyone gathered in the area before running away, according to passengers at the scene.
The flasher seized the opportunity that arose after the bus was leaving a stop in the area at about 1 p.m. Monday, according to passengers and eye witnesses.
A dump truck exited a nearby construction zone and hit the front, right bumper of the bus as the dump truck attempted to merge with northbound traffic, according to passengers and witnesses.
The dump truck was removing debris from a canal construction site.
A new bus came to pick up the passengers and continue the route.
No one was injured in this incident.
