Municipal bus catches fire in Brno

A municipal bus carrying 30 people caught fire on Tuesday in Brno; everyone inside was able to flee the vehicle in time and no one was injured. The driver apparently heard a loud noise from the back of the articulated bus and flames and thick smoke began to spread quickly before he stopped and helped evacuate the passengers, which included one invalid. The fire completely destroyed the bus, which cost roughly two million crowns. The South Moravian fire department said that the fire had evidently been caused by a fuel leak.
