MOSCOW - Over 80 people have been injured in a collision between two buses in New York, with 18 of them hospitalised but without life-threatening injuries, Sputnik quoted the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) on Friday.
"We've transported at the time 18 patients, none have any life-threatening injuries. We are evaluating approximately 63 other people. Both buses seem to have been fairly fully occupied," Deputy Chief Paul Hopper from EMS Division 1 said.
The incident occurred in Manhattan at 7 pm on Thursday night (11:00 GMT) when a double-decker tourist bus crashed into a Metropolitan Transit Network bus, the New York City Fire Department said.
Eyewitnesses told the ABC News broadcaster that the collision had been caused by the tourist bus driver running a red light.- BERNAMA-SPUTNIK
