 A day after a car ran a stop sign and struck a Bemidji school bus, the driver of the car has been released from the hospital. Authorities have identified him as 29-year-old Thomas Lee Nielsen from Chattanooga, Tennessee. Nielsen recently relocated to Bemidji and lives near the scene of the crash. Now law enforcement says Bemidji's school bus 25 was traveling southbound on Urban Avenue around 7.30 Wednesday morning when the crash occurred. Nielsen was driving eastbound on South Mobile Lake Road and went through the stop sign and hit the bus, forcing it to swerve off the road and then roll into the ditch. The Minnesota State Patrol has been at the scene throughout the day reconstructing the accident as the investigation continues. We've got a little more work to do on our investigation, a few more interviews to do, and once the results of our entire investigation are done and we get our reports all prepared, we'll present our investigation results to the county attorney's office for their review for charges. The driver of the school bus has been identified as Patrick Russell Stout. He was released from the hospital last night.
