A double decker bus ploughed into the front of a home on Boxing day.
The 118 bus on the way to Brixton in south London crashed into a car and then the front of the two-storey house in Streatham Vale just before 9pm.
Three people suffered minor injuries, while one of them was taken to hospital.
It remains unclear what caused the crash, but a neighbour said on Twitter a car “collided with the bus”.
He said: “Have not been on site since 11:30pm of last night, at which point there was an extraction vehicle for I believe the car that had collided with the bus originally, owner of the car was also standing by wearing a heat blanket but otherwise seemingly okay.”
A spokeswoman for London Ambulance Service said: “At 8.55, we were called to the Streatham area to reports of a bus in collision with a house and car.
“We sent a number of resources to the scene.
“There were three patients with minor injuries, one of whom needed to be taken to hospital by ambulance.”
A Met Police spokesman said: “Police were called at approximately 8.55pm on Wednesday, December 26 to reports of a bus in collision with a building in Streatham Vale.
“Officers and London Ambulance Service attended the scene.
“No reports of any serious injuries.
“No arrests; enquiries into the circumstances remain ongoing.”

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
