Driver a hero

A driver was a hero after he evacuated passengers from a coach which burst into flames on its way to Heathrow Airport.

The National Express driver assisted around 40 people off the single-decker Scania and rescued their luggage after a fire started in the roof at around 11.05am today (March 30) on the B487 Hemel Hempstead road, Redbourn.

The road was closed as crews from St Albans, Harpenden and Redbourn smashed a window to let smoke out as the fire engulfed the vehicle.
