A charter bus full of people from New York experienced an emergency evacuation when the vehicle caught fire Saturday in Worcester, Massachusetts. Flames and thick black smoke could be seen pouring out of the bus in the parking lot of a Madison Street shopping center. The vehicle was fully engulfed in flames by 1:20 p.m. and they eventually spread. Video shared by witnesses shows how the intense flames damaged part of a Madison Place storefront. The bus belongs to a charter bus company transporting passengers from New York to Massachusetts.
