Bus dangles from Bronx overpass after crash

A tandem bus in #NewYork was left hanging from the edge of an overpass in the #Bronx. Images from the scene show the articulated vehicle split along the joint and balancing on its front end, which rammed into the roadway below.

The incident happened on Thursday night as the bus driver was trying to take a turn onto a ramp to the Washington Bridge, according to the New York Post tabloid. The height difference between the two levels is about 50 feet (15 meters).

Emergency services reported that at least nine people were injured in the incident. Some media said the number could be higher.
