Rapper Swarmz escapes injury after £250,000 Ferrari 488 Pista supercar crashes with a bus in central London leaving it a crumpled wreck

A British rapper was involved in an incident where a Ferrari crashed into a London bus in central London on Sunday.
Photographs of the incident show the sports car, a Ferrari 488 Pista valued at around £250,000, in a damaged condition after colliding with a number 91 bus in a 20mph zone near Trafalgar Square. 
Famous rapper Swarmz put up an Instagram story showing he was at the scene of the crash, but it is not clear whether the car belonged to him, nor whether he was the driver of the vehicle.
Swarmz, who has over one million followers on Instagram, had been in possession of the vehicle on Saturday night, with the rapper putting up a separate video of him and some friends looking at the car.
