NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (KABC) -- A 17-year-old girl is recovering after she fell out of a window of a moving charter bus on prom night.



Charlotte Boyse tumbled out onto the San Joaquin Hills toll road in Newport Beach on Saturday night.



She said the bus had inward facing seats and that she had leaned back against a window to let someone pass by, when it suddenly popped open.



After landing in traffic, Boyse ran to the median.



Her father said two girls grabbed her as she fell, possibly preventing more serious injuries.



The teen suffered minor injuries to her feet, back, tail bone and arm.
