Plasterer saves children from overturned double-decker bus

Posted: Friday, October 11th, 2024

Gary Smyth and his colleagues were travelling behind a double-decker bus when it overturned in County Down, Northern Ireland, Daily Mail reported.

The wrecked blue bus was pictured toppled on its side in a field, cordoned off and surrounded by police after it careened off the road with children ‘screaming’ in fear.

Shocking images from the scene showed the shattered windscreen and schoolchildren standing beside it, clutching their bags.

Gary used a hammer to smash windows and help rescue schoolchildren who were crying for help.

Witnesses and officials say they are amazed that no one was killed in the accident, with the scene described as being 'like a battlefield'.
