A SCHOOLBOY who was seriously injured after being hit by a bus in North Yorkshire is in a stable condition in hospital.

The 16-year-old suffered head injuries in the accident at around 3pm on Thursday as he waited at a bus stop outside Richmond School in Darlington Road, Richmond, where he is a pupil.

He was flown to James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough by air ambulance while the road was closed for almost three hours while police began their investigations and diversions were put in place for motorists.

Anybody who saw the collision should call North Yorkshire Police’s Richmond Road Policing Group on 0845 6060 247 and leave a message for Traffic Constable Don Wright, quoting reference number 12090094087.
