The coach continues on, forcing the first vehicle on top of the next vehicle parked in front of it.

The driver of the bus was on the phone, a caller told a 9-1-1 operator.

"A bus hit my car and another car," she said. "Please be quick."

The woman told the operator that no one was in her car or the second car that was hit.

"He hit very bad," she said of the RTA bus. "Please be quick."

Jessica Olson, a spokeswoman with RTA, said any information beyond the video of the crash would have to be obtained from Dayton police.

We will update this developing report as we learn more.
