She was hit while crossing Kensington Church Street in the second serious pedestrian accident involving a London bus in a week.

The northbound 328 to Golders Green hit the 30-year-old woman as it turned from Kensington High Street, just after 10 last night. She was struck with such force that her body weight caved in the windscreen before being dragged under the vehicle. Witnesses today told how two police officers spent five minutes pulling her out from under the bus.

Kate Russell, 39, a writer from Highgate, said: "The bus driver was saying he didn't see her and that she just ran out in front of him. He was visibly shaken."

It comes just days after East India Club chef David Gaydier, 35, was killed when he was knocked down and dragged under a 74 bus in Park Lane.

Meanwhile, three people are in a serious condition in hospital after their car hit a central reservation on the A406 under the Canal Bridge, west London, just after 10 last night.
