    CHICAGO (CBS) — A driver was killed, and three other people were hurt after a car struck a CTA bus on the city's Southwest Side early Saturday morning.

    The crash happened around 4 a.m. in the 4000 block of West 26th Street in the Little Village neighborhood.

    Preliminary information indicated a white Infinity sedan driven by a man, 18, with a passenger, a woman, 21, was traveling westbound when it failed to stop at a traffic signal, striking the northbound 53 bus occupied by the driver and a passenger.

    Surveillance video captured the moment the car crashed into the front of the bus, sending it into a building where it rested.

    The driver of the Infinity was taken to Mt. Sinai in serious condition, where he later died. The passenger was also taken to Mt. Sinai with unknown injuries in good condition.

    A 38-year-old woman was taken to Mt. Sinai, and a 52-year-old woman was taken to St. Anthony with unknown injuries. Both were in good condition.

    Police said no citations were issued and no further information was immediately available.
