JAKARTA. - A double-decker bus crashed into a bus stop in Stockholm, Sweden, killing three people and injuring three others.
Authorities received reports of the accident at 3:23 p.m. on Friday, November 14, local time.
The bus crashed into a bus stop on Valhallavägen, a street in the Östermalm district of the Swedish capital. The area is in the northern part of the city, near the Royal Institute of Technology.
Police are treating the accident as "manslaughter" but are still investigating. The cause is unclear.

Emergency services said the bus was not operating and had no passengers on board at the time, TT reported.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson wrote on his Twitter account that he had "received the tragic news that several people were killed and injured at the bus stop. People who were probably on their way home to see family, friends, or to enjoy a quiet evening at home."
