From the “Only in New Zealand” file (via Stuff) the story of Bus versus Police Station.  Red faces (and more) all around I suspect.

A Hamilton flasher’s antics have led to a spectacular crash where a bus has smashed into the local police station.
Police say the strange incident happened shortly before 9am when a teenager on the Orbiter bus allegedly exposed himself to a woman passenger. She screamed, prompting the driver to phone a bus company representative, who in turn told him to drive to the nearby police station at the Flagstaff shops, River Rd.
With the female passenger still screaming, the bus driver stopped in the station carpark and – believing the bus was in neutral – activated the emergency door lock.
"Unfortunately for the driver, the bus was still in gear and it rolled into the entranceway of the station, cracking its windscreen and causing minimal damage to the building," a police statement said.
A police spokesman later confirmed that the driver and the victim left the bus and, in activating the emergency lock to trap the flasher, the park brake disengaged.
The victim was okay and recovering from her ordeal, the spokesman said.
No-one was injured in the crash and, as police said, the suspect – a 14-year-old boy – "was arrested … in a flash".
The boy was charged with carrying out an indecent act.

Oh dear…
