The South Carolina Highway Patrol is still trying to identify the driver of a pickup that struck a bus, hit a building, and left the scene.
The accident happened around 9 p.m. Wednesday near Norwood Drive in Anderson County.
The truck was driving south on S.C. 153 when the pickup driver lost control and sideswiped a Greenlink bus, the Tiger Commute, which is owned by the city of Greenville.
There were no passengers on the bus at the time of the accident and the bus driver, 69-year-old Edward Iwanski of Greenville, was not injured.
The truck then crossed a median, struck a guardrail and went down an embankment and hit a building which was home to Fulbright Mini Storage and an accounting office.
A witness to the crash said the truck left with cinder blocks on it and scattered pieces of bricks and cinder blocks on the road the driver took after the crash.
The damaged red truck was later found parked at a home on Old Easley Bridge Road, about two and a half miles from the crash.
The truck is registered to David Bayne, aged over 80, but he was not driving it at the time of the accident.
