HAMPSTEAD, Md. (AP) — Authorities say a 19-year-old man is critically injured and eight other people are also hurt after a crash involving a charter bus on a rural road in Maryland.

Baltimore County police spokeswoman Officer Jen Peach said by telephone Wednesday that an Infiniti G27X hit the driver's side of the bus at the intersection of Falls and Brick Store roads in the Hampstead area. She says the teen, who was in the Infiniti, was taken to a hospital with critical injuries. She says eight bus passengers have injuries that aren't considered life-threatening.

Fire officials tweeted that 35 people on the bus were not injured.
