13 hurt as bus crashes off road

Thirteen people were hurt when a bus crashed off a road in Lanarkshire.

Seven were taken to hospital after the coach left the A702 near Biggar in South Lanarkshire last night. None of their injuries are thought to be life-threatening.

It wasn't clear what caused the 30-seater bus, operated by McEwan's of Dumfries, to leave the road and end up down an embankment at 8.30pm.
