LONDON - Nine people including seven children were injured, some believed critically, on Thursday when a car collided with a primary school building in south-west London.
Local MP Stephen Hammond told the BBC he understood that a number of the casualties were “being treated as critical”, describing the crash as “extraordinarily distressing and tragic”.

Thursday was the last day of term for children aged four to eight, according to the school’s website.
