A scheduled bus caught fire on the E6 at Mortensrud in Oslo. The police reported the incident at 01:17 on Sunday night. At 01:38 the police report that the fire has been extinguished. – The fire itself has been extinguished, but there is still some smoke, writes operations manager Bjørn Gunnar Nysæter in the Oslo Police District on the Police Log. The bus was not in traffic, and only the driver was on board. Nysæter reports that the driver is safe. The southbound direction out of Oslo is closed on the spot, and it is being assessed whether measures should be taken for the inbound direction as well. – For now, this direction is open in one field, writes Nysæter.
