Multiple emergency crews have been dispatched after a bus carrying 40 children crashed into a ditch.

Schoolchildren have been marked as “safe” after the crash in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, earlier today.


The crash occurred on Tullyah Road in the small village of Belleeks just after 3.30pm.

Justin McNulty, Member of the Legislative Assembly for the Social Democratic and Labour Party in Newry and Armagh, said: “Thankfully, around 40 children all walked away from the scene and are home”.

The ambulance service described the crash as “significant”.

Reports from the scene indicate the school bus had veered off the road into a ditch and was left on its side.
