A plane crashed into a bus on a busy highway in Sao Paulo on Friday, killing two people and injuring six others, the local fire brigade has said.

They said that the plane crashed on the Marques de Sao Vicente Avenue and then hit the bus.

According to the fire brigade, a woman on the bus and a biker who was struck by a piece of equipment were taken to hospital. Four other people suffered minor injuries.
