There was panic on the morning of Thursday, August 14, after a school bus overturned along the busy Kilifi-Malindi highway.

In images obtained by Kenyans.co.ke, the bus can be seen lying on its side next to a maize plantation, with its windscreen shattered.

Preliminary reports suggest the bus lost control before toppling onto its side, coming to rest a few yards from the main highway.

While it remains unclear whether the bus was ferrying students, no casualties were reported by Thursday afternoon.  An overturned school bus along the Malindi-Kilifi Highway on Thursday, August 14 2025.
