A bus driver armed with a knife rammed his vehicle into a crowd in Istanbul before stabbing people and jumping in the sea, according to reports.
The incident at a bus stop in the Turkish city has reportedly left one dead and at least a dozen other people injured, including two children.
An Istanbul city official confirmed one man had died in the aftermath of the attack.

Footage of the scene shows people running away from the bus, which has a smashed windscreen.
Injured people can be seen lying on the ground, as a crowd surrounds them.
