A teenage girl's been taken to hospital for a back injury after she was hit by a bus in West Belfast.

It happened on the falls road last Tuesday afternoon.

Detectives want to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time who may have dashcam footage.

 

Constable Brooks said:

 

"It was reported that around 2:30pm a female, aged in her late teens, was walking on the footpath when she was struck by a flap located at the back of the bus, which is believed to have come loose.

"The female was taken to hospital for a back injury.

"I am appealing to anyone who was in the area and saw what happened to get in touch. I am also particularly keen to hear from drivers with a dash cam who were on the Falls Road and who may have captured the incident to contact us. 

“Anyone who believes they could assist with our investigation is asked to contact police in Woodbourne on the non emergency number 101, quoting reference number 708 of 21/08/18.”
