The incident which happened at about 9.30 pm at Ada George Road would have been more horrible if the shop owners who sell tiles and ceramics had not closed business for the day.
Fabian Woke who witnessed the accident said a squatter trader who uses front of the shop to sell kerosene and fuel at night was even luckier when the bus broke into the shop.
“The guy was lucky. He closed earlier than usual to watch the Chelsea/Benfica Europa Cup final at a nearby barber shop. It didn’t take 10 minutes after he left when the bus came crashing into the shop,” Woke said.
Among the victims of the incident was a pedestrian who was swept of the roadside by the bus and dragged underneath with a deep gash to his belly.
When newsmen visited the scene, a team of policemen was said to have moved the wounded to hospital for medical attention.
It was not clear what lead to the accident, but Woke quoted an unhurt passenger in the crashed bus as saying that a female passenger had a scuffle with the driver following argument over the balance of her fare.
