Two teenagers have died in a crash after the car they were travelling in left a road bridge and crashed into a minibus on the motorway below.
Emergency services were called to the scene of the crash at 1.33pm on Friday after a report that a blue car travelling on Gilmorton Lane towards Lutterworth, Leicestershire, had fallen off the road bridge onto the M1 carriageway.
A spokesperson for Leicestershire Police said the car had also collided with a white Fiat Ducato that was travelling southbound on the M1.
