A pedestrian has died after being hit by a bus on a city centre road.

Police were called to the crash on Rose Lane, in Norwich, shortly after 21:50 BST on Thursday but the woman, in her 80s, was pronounced dead at the scene.

No-one on the double-decker bus was hurt, Norfolk Constabulary said.

Officers have appealed for any witnesses or anyone with dash-cam footage to contact them, including passengers who may have left the scene without speaking to police.

The crash happened at the crossing at the junction with St Vedast Street, police said.

The road was closed while emergency services dealt with the incident and was re-opened on Friday morning.
