Bus fire in Plymouth forces evacuation and causes delays on Route 3

PLYMOUTH, Mass. — Passengers on board a bus heading south on Route 3 in Plymouth had to evacuate from their seats Friday morning after their bus caught fire.

The fire on board the Peter Pan bus also led to some delays on Route 3 as crews closed one lane to get the fire under control.

About 20 passengers were on board the bus, according to a Peter Pan spokesperson. Another bus was called in to take passenger to their destinations.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
