Does anyone know why there's a bus half way into a building in
Lewisham at the moment?

I can't see any news about this anywhere, but I think it must have
been involved in a major police chase.

Why do you think that?

Not keen on wild speculation, but a car embedded in a wall some
distance down the road, for no obvious reason, all at the same time,
suggests that maybe the car ended up in the wall after having
previously caused the bus to end up as it is.

But I was hoping for more news that would help avoid that kind of
guess.

Ah - *now* you mention the car being embedded in another wall. That changes
everything. A bus, on its own, ending up in a wall suggests that it may have
swerved to avoid something - maybe even a stray pedestrian. But if there's
also a car in the same predicament nearby, that suggests that the two events
are linked. What you surmise may well be correct. Whatever happened, it must
have been bloody frightening for the bus driver/passengers and other drivers
or pedestrians round about who saw it happen.

Absolutely. A bit stomach-churning to see even the aftermath. I
wasn't being tricky, but I just wanted to know if there was any proper
news before wading in with my uninformed, circumstantial version of the
story. Which I've now done of course.
