The impact knocked the victim's sandwich and salad right out of her hands and splattered the drink she was holding all over the windshield of the bus.

Eyewitnesses said she wound up flying into a parked Range Rover.

MBTA Transit Police are investigating the accident. They said the teen appears to have crossed the street between two SUVs and was not in a crosswalk.
