A 62-year-old private bus driver died after he was involved in an accident along Outram Road towards Cantonment Road on March 12.

Stomper Alycia alerted Stomp to the incident and shared a video and photos she took as she was passing by the scene at about 12.38pm.

In the footage, a bus appears to have mounted a kerb and crashed into a tree which has been uprooted.
