Two critical, 30 more injured after London bus crash
Two people, including a 19-year-old woman, are in a critical condition and 30 others are injured after a bus crashed into a tree.
The number 59 double-decker bus swerved to avoid another vehicle and hit the tree in Kennington, south London, near the Imperial War Museum shortly before 11am.
Two police officers were among those on board when the bus crashed.
Passenger Jesse Fox explained: "The tree came basically right through the front, into the seats. The whole front of the bus was trashed.
"I think a lot of the people on the lower deck - injured and not injured - got off very quickly because the doors were opened very quickly."
