An 18-year-old man has been charged following a bus crash in Aberdeen that left three people injured.

The man is understood to be the driver of a vehicle, a white Volkswagen Polo, involved in the collision.

He is expected to appear in court at a later date.

The incident happened on Union Street beside the Summer Street junction at about 11:40am on Monday.

Two people were taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, and a third person was treated at the scene. None of the injuries were serious.

Speaking at the time, a First Bus spokesperson said: “Our thoughts are with all of those affected by this morning’s incident.
