Shots Fired at JTA Bus

JPD investigating shooting of JTA bus last nite
About 9:50 p.m. Thursday, a Jackson Transit Authority bus driver reported that an individual with at least one other person shot 2 or 3 times into his bus as he passed them on Tracewood near Raintree breaking glass. The driver left the area and called for Police to come to the K-Mart lot on Old Hickory. There was one passenger on the bus at the time that left before Police arrived.

The driver was not injured and did not believe the passenger to have been injured either. The driver was substitute driver on the route. Investigators would like to speak with the passenger as a witness to the incident. He is described as being a black male in his late teens to early 20’s about 5’10” tall with a dark complexion and “bad teeth”. He may have been talking on a cell phone when the shooting occurred.
