Friday, May 4, 2018, 5:00 PM - In a case of what is definitely a photo looking worse than the actual outcome, sustained winds of 45 km/h and gusts near 100 km/h in Mississauga, Ont., caused several tree branches to snap off Friday afternoon, narrowly missing a school bus full of children.

Police received a call to the scene at 3:27 p.m. ET, alerting to the incident, which occurred on Sayers Road.

There were 72 children between the ages of 7 and 10 on the bus at the time of the incident. No injuries were reported.

The occupants were loaded onto another bus. Sayers Road was closed for the investigation and clean up.
