Five people are reported to have been killed in a collision between a passenger train and a double-decker city bus in the Canadian city of Ottawa.

The front of the bus was sheared off by the collision on the track at a level crossing.

The train engine was derailed along with two of the carriages but all remained upright.

Ottawa Fire Services spokesman Marc Messier said fewer than six passengers on the bus were killed and around half a dozen more have been taken to hospital, at least three with serious injuries.

A police spokesman said the dead were the driver of the bus and four passengers.

Several witnesses, including two passengers on the bus, said it had been driven through a lowered level crossing barrier as the train was approaching.

The Canadian Press reported witness Pascal Lolgis as saying: “He didn’t stop. He must have lost his brakes. Or he had an … attack or whatever. He just didn’t stop. He just keep going like that. Then he get hit.”

VIA Rail, which operates the national passenger service in Canada, said there were no major injuries reported on the train. The crash occurred just before 9.00 am local time in the west end of Ottawa, Canada’s capital city.
