"My thoughts, and those of the wider force, remain with each of the seven injured people, their families, and witnesses at the scene.
"While today's charge is positive news, and one that I hope brings a degree of reassurance, the investigation into the incident continues and I would once again appeal for anyone who has any information to come forward," she said in a statement.
