A pick-up truck rear-ended a Metro bus Monday night and then sped away from the scene in Southeast Washington, where eight people reported injuries, Metro officials said. The Metro bus, on a number 32 route, had stopped at a bus stop near the intersection of Pennsylvania and Minnesota avenues SE. It was there that a pick-up truck struck the rear of the bus about 8:15 p.m. said a Metro spokesman. Eight passengers complained of injuries, though none were visible or life threatening. Those passengers were taken hospitals, Stessel said.
