A Gorham man was charged after a crash involving a school bus in Naples Tuesday afternoon.

The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office says a driver crossed the center line and struck a Lake Region school bus on Casco Road around 12:15 p.m.

The bus had two students on board, who were checked out by first responders and cleared at the scene.

Deputies say the driver of the other vehicle, 31-year-old Jeffrey Lord, fled the scene but was later found and charged with operating with a suspended license, and was being processed for operating under the influence.
