According to Ottawa Fire Services, firefighters received reports of a bus on fire in the middle of the road at around 9:53 a.m.
Upon arrival, firefighters confirmed an active blaze and began to work on getting it under control.
According to Ottawa Fire Services, the driver attempted to extinguish the blaze with a fire extinguisher but was unsuccessful. Firefighters confirmed that there was no one on board the bus at the time of the fire, and there are no reported injuries.
