The accordion-style bus jackknifed on the ice.

PITTSBURGH, PA - A Port Authority of Allegheny County bus slammed into a row house on Seneca Street, Uptown, during Wednesday morning’s winter storm that triggered treacherous road conditions.

KDKA-TV reported the 61A route jackknifed on the ice, crashed into a yard and then against the house. No injuries were reported, authority officials told the station.

The accident was one of many that occurred Wednesday as a burst of heavy snow followed by freezing rain struck the region.
