A London double-decker bus has burst into flames as horrified onlookers watched the fireball erupt on the streets of south London.

Passengers and the driver of the bus fled for their lives after it was engulfed in roaring flames in Streatham Hill near Brixton.

Black smoke could be seen bellowing from the double-decker after it arrived at a bus stop just before 10am.
Flames erupted at the back of the vehicle while parts of the bus, which were burning in the inferno, ‘crashed’ to the ground.
Horrified witnesses said that the dramatic fire started ‘promptly’ after the bus pulled into the stop on Christchurch Road.
