BBC reported that a driver who rammed a bus into a busy nursery in Quebec, killing two children, has been charged with first-degree murder.

Six children were injured in the incident – including some who became trapped under the vehicle – in Laval, near Montreal, on Wednesday morning.

Police believe the suspect, Pierre Ny St-Amand, deliberately drove the bus into the nursery during the morning drop-off.

But they said a motive was unclear.

The 51-year-old, who had been employed as a bus driver by the local public transit system for 10 years, was charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, aggravated assault and assault with a weapon or causing bodily harm.
