SJSU Football Player Struck and Killed by School Bus

San Jose State freshman football player Camdan McWright was killed after he was hit by a school bus while riding an electric scooter, the school confirmed to ESPN’s Kyle Bonagura.

According to NBC Bay Area, McWright was riding his scooter near campus when he was struck at about 6:50 a.m. According to California Highway Patrol Officer Ross Lee, McWright rode into the path of the bus. None of the 14 students who were on the bus at the time of the crash were injured.

“Some witnesses on scene gave statements that the traffic traveling on Reed at the time had a green light, but that is still something that we will need to confirm and that’ll be part of our investigation,” Lee said.

McWright was a three-star running back out of Pacoima, Calif., playing in his first season with San Jose State. He had appeared in only one game this season.
