Shots Fired at MTA Bus on Staten Island

The NYPD is investigating after shots were fired at a city bus on Staten Island.

Authorities say the shots were fired shortly after midnight Sunday.

The MTA told the Staten Island Advance that the operator of the S46 bus told police the shots rang out after several of the passengers exited near Brabant Street and Lockman Avenue. No one was injured.

Police say the shooter fired from outside the bus, striking a window and the rear exit door. He remained at large. Police described him as a teenager wearing a ski mask.

Officers responded and questioned some of the 14 young people inside the bus.
