A person was struck by the driver of a bus around 1:11 p.m. near Massachusetts Avenue and 7th Street NW, according to preliminary information available from the Metropolitan Police Department and D.C.’s Fire and Emergency Medical Service Department.

The person, who an MPD spokesperson indicated was a male pedestrian, has been removed from the scene and transported to an area hospital with “critical injuries,” an FEMS spokesperson says. While photos from the scene show a Greyhound bus stopped in the middle of an intersection, the FEMS spokesperson could not say whether the bus was occupied, and, if so, how many people were on it.

Streets in the area are currently closed to traffic, MPD reports.

Update 2:57 p.m.: Greyhound has released the following statement on this afternoon’s vehicular incident:
