FIRE crews have tackled a large blaze on a bus in Broughty Ferry, with all passengers escaping without injury.
The Courier reported that locals heard explosions and could see smoke coming from a Stagecoach vehicle on Strathern Road, close to the Gardyne college campus.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: “We received an alert at 2.30pm of a vehicle on fire on Strathern Road.
“Two appliances, one from Kingsway and a second from Macalpine Road stations, were dispatched and on arrival found a bus to be alight.
“Both crews remain at the scene. There are currently no reports of any injuries.”
One eyewitness told The Courier: “I saw a lot of firefighters and other emergency services at the scene as clouds of thick black smoke was coming from the bus.
