An Italian bus driver on Tuesday had saved 25 school children by getting them off the vehicle before it caught fire in a road tunnel connecting Lecco to the province of Sondrio, north of Milan, Italy.
Seven of the children were admitted to the hospital for tests after inhaling smoke. Their condition is not serious.
Police said the man’s prompt action saved a big tragedy from happening.
The driver realized there was something wrong right after getting into the tunnel, stopped, and asked the kids to get off.
The bus then burst into flames.
An ambulance was sent, but it was not used.
The cause of the fire is yet to be figured out.
