THREE men died and one man was injured in a car-bus collision early yesterday morning in the Pudong New Area.

The driver of the car, surnamed Zhang, is in a coma at a hospital with a head injury.

The car hit the front of a city night bus about 4am at the intersection of Laiyang and Dongbo roads, then swerved and hit a roadside tree, a witness said. There were no serious injuries on the bus, police said.
