West Yorkshire Police are appealing for witnesses after a double-decker bus and car crash left a man with serious injuries. At 2.06pm on Thursday, December 15, emergency services were called to the crash involving a blue Ford EcoSport SUV and a stationary double-decker bus on the A658 Pool Bank New Road, close to the junction with old Lane in Leeds.
The unoccupied bus was parked at a bus stop at the time of the crash and the car was heading southbound away from the direction of the Dyneley Arms crossroads. A 69-year-old man, who was a passenger in the Ford, received serious injuries and remains in hospital. The driver, a 51-year-old man, received minor injuries.
The crash caused extensive damage to both vehicles and a road closure was put in place until 10.45pm so the scene could be examined and cleared.
