MILWAUKEE—Charges have been filed against a Milwaukee man allegedly involved in a hit and run accident with a school bus.

A few blocks away he crashed into a school bus which rolled up onto the front yard of a home at 60th St and Carmen.

No kids were on board at the time.

The driver wasn’t hurt, but Walker ran away leaving his car behind.
