NEWARK, N.J. - A school bus company official says a New Jersey driver who was given an opioid antidote after hitting a tree may have been experiencing diabetes complications. He tells WPIX-TV that the woman behind the wheel was actually an aide covering for the regular driver. He says that aide Lisa Byrd had told him about a medical issue related to a diabetic condition and that her medication did not work well. The bus appeared to cross a street and bump a tree during a snowstorm Wednesday in Newark. Authorities say they used the overdose antidote naloxone on her.
