A schoolchild died after being struck by a bus near a roundabout on the main road, close to a church, around 1:15 p.m.today. Emergency services responded to the scene and immediately began efforts to save the girl, but were unsuccessful.
The tragic incident occurred as the child was walking home from school. A significant emergency response-including police, fire department personnel, and a crisis intervention team-secured the accident site and initiated a full investigation. Authorities have cordoned off the area and are working to determine the circumstances surrounding the collision, including whether passengers were aboard the bus.
