A double-decker school bus carrying more than 60 passengers has crashed in Northern Ireland’s County Down.
The Northern Ireland Ambulance Service (NIAS) has declared it a "major incident".
The double-decker bus was carrying more that 60 passengers, over 50 have minor injuries and 8 are being treated for more significant injuries at the scene.
BBC News understands the majority of those onboard are pupils from Strangford College.
Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) have deployed five fire appliances and a specialist team are at the scene of a "collision involving an overturned bus".
