A five-year-old boy has died after being hit by a bus in Glasgow, police have said.
Two children, including the boy and a nine-year-old girl were struck at about 5.40pm on Tuesday on Calder Street in the south of the city.
The boy was pronounced dead at the scene despite receiving treatment from paramedics.
The girl was taken to the Royal Hospital for Children where her condition has been described as serious but stable.
Sergeant Nicolas Twigg said: “Our thoughts are with the family of the boy who died and they have asked for privacy at what is a very difficult time for them.
“Our inquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances of what has happened and we are asking anyone who was in the area at the time of the crash and saw what happened to get in touch.
“In addition, if you have dashcam (footage) that could help with our crash investigation, then please contact us.”
Officers have urged anyone with information to come forward by calling Police Scotland on 101, quoting the incident number 2648 of Tuesday April 4.
The road was closed for more than six hours to allow for investigations.
