JEFFERSON PARK – A family of six has been displaced after a CTA bus slammed into their Jefferson Park home Saturday night while the family was watching TV.

Now, the family is seeking temporary shelter after the crash wrecked much of their house.

The bus was driving northbound in the 5500 block of North Central Avenue around 10:40 p.m. Saturday when a black sedan crashed into the driver’s side of the bus after the car drove through a stop sign on West Catalpa Avenue, police said.

The bus driver lost control after the initial impact, first hitting a parked car, then barreling through a fence before finally crashing into and destroying the house, police said. The 46-year-old bus driver suffered a laceration to her head and was taken to a local hospital in fair condition, police said.
