An SBS Transit bus caught fire while along Lower Delta Road on Tuesday morning.
A Stomp contributor witnessed the scene and sent in photographs to the citizen-journalism portal.

The contributor said he was on his way to work at Cendex Centre when he saw a bus engulfed in thick smoke and flames coming out from the windows. A spokesman for the Singapore Civil Defence Force said they received a call about the fire at 9.12am. No one was hurt.
In a separate incident on Tuesday morning, the driver of an SBS Transit bus service reportedly got lost after several roads were closed due to the Thaipusam procession.
A contributor told Stomp that the driver of SBS Transit bus service 65 was forced to drive around the Singapore Management University (SMU) in a bid to get back to his route.
The contributor wrote: "The driver appeared to have been unaware of the Thaipusam festival procession along his bus route, and was unsure of where to go.
The contributor said the bus driver missed a stop and only regained the route at YMCA.
"Passengers asked him to stop them at a bus stop along the route instead and he promptly did so," the contributor said.
