A bus is evacuated after a reported explosion and smoke in Edinburgh’s city centre on Princes Street, with passengers moved away from the vehicle. Footage circulated showing passengers being escorted off the bus.
The incident involves a Lothian Buses service that comes to a stop on Princes Street. Reports describe smoke filling the vehicle, prompting passengers to flee and be evacuated. One outlet describes a “blows up” moment captured on video, while another focuses on the smoke-filled interior and the immediate evacuation.
Both accounts agree the bus halted on Princes Street and that passengers were evacuated before further details of any aftermath or official conclusions are provided. The reports do not specify the cause, injuries, or the extent of damage, focusing instead on the on-the-spot evacuation and the circumstances leading to it.
