GENEVA: A bus fire that killed at least six people in western Switzerland was likely set intentionally but probably not as an act of terror, police said on Wednesday.
The fire broke out on the bus in the main street of the small town of Kerzers, around 20 kilometers (12 miles) west of the Alpine nation’s capital Bern, at about 6:25 p.m. (1725 GMT) Tuesday.
In an interview on Wednesday morning with Swiss national broadcaster RTS, Fribourg Canton police communications chief Martial Pugin confirmed that while “an intentional act is the most likely scenario,” “at present there is no evidence” it was a terror attack.
