LAS VEGAS, Nev. (702 Times, NV Globe) – No injuries were reported by Nevada State Police when a Clark County School District bus caught fire around 12:30 P.M.

Police say the vehicle was traveling westbound on the 215, just west of Hualapai, when it caught fire due to mechanical issues and that the driver was in the vehicle at the time when it happened.

State police say the driver was able to pull to the right shoulder before the bus caught fire, but fuel did leak onto the roadway.

Police anticipate the closure to last roughly 2 hours for the clean-up.

In the meantime, traffic is being diverted westbound at Hualapai.
