The Baltimore County Fire Department is responding to a mass casualty incident in Pikesville, Maryland.

Fire officials report that a bus crashed into a building in the 1500 block of Reisterstown Road.

33 people were injured in the collision, with two people in critical condition.

At least one critically injured person has since been transported via medevac from the Maryland State Police to Shock Trauma.

Fifteen ambulances, including units from Howard and Anne Arundel counties, responded to the scene of the crash. BGE, the local power company, is also en route to help with downed power lines.

Baltimore County Fire says seven other vehicles were involved in the crash. One critically injured person needed to be extricated from the bus, and another required extraction from a car.

Baltimore County police say Reisterstown Road is closed in both directions between Old Court Road and McHenry Avenue due to the crash.

Motorists are asked to avoid the area and use alternate routes, as an extended closure is expected.

Governor Wes Moore released a statement saying his administration is "closely monitoring" the situation.
