TACOMA, WA — One person was hospitalized Monday evening after a Pierce Transit bus crashed through the yard of a residence in Tacoma’s Lincoln International District, according to KOMO News.

Tacoma firefighters responded to the scene near the intersection of South 37th Street and South Thompson Avenue bordering Lincoln Park. The crash was first reported by Tacoma Fire at 8:49 p.m.
