The band director at a high school in Jackson suffered fatal injuries in a crash with a school bus. Police said Michael Congiardo's car ran a red light and hit the bus Friday afternoon. He was leaving a school function at Madison Academic Magnet High School, where he is the band director. A man who saw Congiardo before the crash said the car also hit a fence. "I asked him if he was all right," said Dr. Keith Taylor, a Jackson physician. "He told me he was, and then he shot down the street and ran a red light." A School system spokeswoman said in an e-mail that Congiardo's car hit Bus 28 at an intersection at around 4 p.m., after the car went through a red light. Congiardo was taken to the hospital by ambulance, after emergency workers cut the car open to get him out.
