A 76-year-old woman was allegedly run over by a school bus in the Malaga municipality of Alhaurin de la Torre.

A 76-year-old woman has been injured this afternoon, Thursday, October 27, after allegedly being run over by a school bus in the Malaga municipality of Alhaurin de la Torre. According to sources of malagahoy.es, the incident occurred at No58 Avenida Reyes Catolicos.

The 112 Emergency service received a call at around 4:50 pm informing the operator that a woman was in need of medical attention after being injured when she was hit by a bus. They immediately deployed an ambulance from the 061 Health Emergency Centre, along with patrols from the Local Police.

According to sources close to the victim of the hit, she apparently suffered injuries to both feet and was transferred to the Virgen de la Victoria Clinical Hospital in Malaga.
