A MAN is in a critical condition in hospital after being hit by a bus in Co. Antrim.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the incident which happened in Glengormley at around 4.30pm yesterday afternoon (April 2).

“Officers received and responded to a report of a collision at the junction of Antrim Road and Ballyclare Road at around 4.30pm,” the PSNI’s Inspector Patton said in a statement today.
