The roof of a double decker bus has been ripped off after it crashed into a bridge in Hampshire.

There were no passengers on board at the time when the bus hit the bridge in in Railway Street on Station Road in Portchester.

The bus was out of service at the time and the driver has been treated for shock.

The road remains closed and the Highways Agency are now dealing with the incident.
