Three people have been taken to hospital with potentially "life-changing'' injuries after a crash between a bus and a car in East Lothian.

Two men, aged 23 and 18, and a 16-year-old girl were in a white BMW when it was involved in a crash with a Lothian bus near Prestonpans on Sunday.

The accident happened at around 12.30pm at the Bankton Roundabout and police are appealing for witnesses.
