In a Facebook post on Thursday, bus operator Tower Transit Singapore said the accident happened at a bus stop at Block 790 Yishun Ave 2 at about 3.05pm.<\/p>\n

Three people were taken to Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, while two others were assessed for minor injuries and declined to be taken to hospital, SCDF told CNA.<\/p>\n
In an update at 4.55pm, Tower Transit said it was trying to contact the three people taken to hospital to offer care and support.<\/p>\n
“We\u2019re really sorry for the hurt and inconvenience this has caused them and other road users,” it said.<\/p>\n
The operator added that it was working with the Traffic Police, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) and SBS Transit to support investigations.<\/p>\n
