Early this morning, a car being pursued by an unidentified attacker crashed with a SEPTA bus in Philadelphia’s Logan neighborhood, resulting in a chaotic scene. According to NBC Philadelphia, there were several emergency responses to the incident that occurred at around two in the morning near Broad and West Rockland streets. Reporters were informed by Police Chief Inspector Scott Small that a car that was allegedly “being chased and shot at” collided with the municipal bus, which was fortunately empty at the time of the collision.
Details of the vehicle’s occupants escaping the scene, with the precise number still unknown, surfaced immediately after the crash, which took place during the darkest hours of the night. Police lacked proof of the purported firing after investigations on the scene discovered the car was free of shell casings and bullet holes despite the first reports of a shooting. According to ABC, the bus driver, who was by himself at the time, was unharmed.
According to FOX29 Philadelphia, the impact of the collision seriously damaged both the bus and the involved automobile, causing a telephone pole to fall onto the bus. The damage from the falling pole was unexpectedly small, in contrast to what one might anticipate in such a dramatic tragedy.
