One person was killed after a Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority bus was hijacked and then chased by the police as the driver was held on gun point in Los Angeles early Wednesday morning, KABC and KTLA5 reported.
Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a "Call 911" sign flashing on a Line 81 bus around 12:45 a.m. in South Los Angeles, KTLA5 reported, citing a spokesperson, adding the bus driver had activated the emergency sign after a suspect pulled out a gun allegedly during a dispute. KABC reported that authorities described the incident as a "kidnapping situation."
While several passengers were able to exit the bus before things took a turn for the worse, at least two others were still on board when the bus driver was reportedly forced to take off with the bus as the suspect held a gun to his head, as per KTLA5.
