LONDON (AA) — Nine people, including seven children, were injured after a car drove into a school building in London on Thursday, police said.

"Officers are responding to an incident at a primary school in Camp Road, Wimbledon. We were called at 09:54hrs to reports that a car collided with a building at the school," Merton Police said in a statement.

Local firefighters and ambulances are also supporting emergency services at the incident that took place at the Study Preparatory School.

The driver was stopped at the scene but no arrests have yet been made, added the police.
