– We have arrived on site. There is a full fire in the back of the bus. The fire brigade has started putting out the fire. Bishop Gunnerus gate between Oslo City and Byporten is closed to traffic, the police wrote on Twitter at 19.25.
At 19.40, the police report that the fire has been extinguished and they are working on post-extinguishing. No injuries have been reported.
It has been opened up for the tram to pass, but the street is still closed to other traffic.
– It is too early to say anything about the course of events. It is assumed that the bus was in motion when the incident occurred when there were passengers on board, says operations manager Christian Krohn Engeseth in the Oslo police district to NTB.
