Terror teens killed

Two teenagers were killed in joy ride crash after colliding into a crowded double decker school bus. A 14 year old driver and 13 year old passenger collided into the Oakmead school bus toady at 9.07am at the Lansdowne roundabout.

Forty-five year thirteen students were sent to hospital after suffering cuts and suspected fractures once the underage drivers collided with the Oakmead school bus.

Lansdowne roundabout has been closed causing standstill traffic. Fire man Bob Staten said “hopefully the roundabout will be reopened this afternoon pending police investigations.”
Fire brigade spokesman said “skid marks were found from the car collision which was most probably caused by the icy surface.”

Bus driver, Hugo Water-Print, 59 is in hospital suffering tinnitus, a broken leg and burns after leading children out of the bus. He said “the car came straight into me and when we crashed the steering wheel went straight into my chest.”

Dez Donhoe, superintendent argues “the crash was entirely down to the underage driver, the bus driver should be rewarded for his bravery.”

The bus driver said “I could hear kids screaming and I had to get them out of there.”
Head teacher of Oakmead School said “our bus driver is a fantastic bloke, he lead all pupils off the bus into safety when he himself was injured.”

It was supposed to be Hugo’s final day tomorrow before he retired but he will not be out of hospital until Friday.

The parents of one of the teenage boys were jetting off to Tenerife. They will be informed of the deaths by Spanish police when they arrive.

Phil Dring said “the incident shouldn’t have occurred; the usual bus was vandalized earlier that morning so a different bus was used. I’m so thankful that all the children are ok.”
Colleagues at Oakmead school are working hard to inform parents and keep the school in order, if you have any enquires please contact the school.
