A TEENAGER was airlifted to hospital after being hit by a bus in Bromley town centre.

The accident happened at around 11.30am on Saturday (October 31) in Elmfield Road, near The Glades.

Initially it was thought the 18-year-old woman had critical injuries.

But scans undertaken at the Royal London Hospital, Whitechapel, revealed this was not the case.

She was discharged from hospital the same day.

Both Kentish Way and Elmfield Road were closed because of the incident and reopened at 1.03pm on Saturday.
