A bus driver has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving following a collision in Romford last November which left two pensioners dead.

Robert Todd, 67, of Redden Court Road, Harold Wood, is set to appear before Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on July 29 accused of two counts of the offence.

Two men - Henry Keller and Colin Graham Hicks - died after a collision with a bus on Western Road at around 2.20pm on November 15, 2013.

The couple, who were in a civil partnership, were both 66 years old.
