At least 10 people suffered minor injuries on Monday morning when a Hong Kong double-decker bus crashed into a kerb in Sha Tin.
The KMB bus mounted the road divider on Sha Tin Central Street near New Town Plaza at around 7.15am as it was heading towards Tai Wai.

The impact of the collision cracked the vehicle’s windscreen, while a metal railing was also dislodged from the divider.
Firefighters attended the scene and helped rescue those on board.


The driver and nine injured passengers – comprising three men, four women, a boy and a girl – were taken to Prince of Wales Hospital in Sha Tin for treatment.
The bus was operating on route 282, a circular service connecting the plaza with Sun Tin Wai.
Some lanes were closed to traffic until 10am.
