OTTAWA — Three people were killed and 23 injured when a double-decker city bus struck a transit shelter in Ottawa on Friday afternoon, badly damaging the vehicle’s upper deck where several people were trapped inside. The driver of the bus was arrested at the scene, Chief Charles Bordeleau of the Ottawa police told an evening news conference at city hall. “Something led us to having to arrest the individual and take them to the station,” Bordeleau said. During the emergency response, a dozen ambulances lined one side of the transit route, waiting to take injured people away. “Most of the serious injuries were on the upper-right side of the bus,” Bordeleau said.
