The driver seems to have escaped serious injury despite his bus being hit by several bullets near a school in Benoni, East Rand, yesterday morning. The bus was shot at by an unknown man after the driver had dropped off Etwatwa Secondary School pupils.
Gauteng education department spokesperson Steve Mabona said the department believed the incident was as a result of simmering tensions between itself and the Benoni Taxi Association. "Taxi owners were not pleased with our provision of scholar transport in that area. We have called upon the police to assist in securing our learners' buses, and [for] patrolling to be done at drop-off points.
"We will also explore the facilitation of a community meeting this evening to pave a way forward," Mabona. A security guard at the school, who wanted to remain anonymous, said they heard about six gunshots being fired."We were scared to go out but we saw the driver running to our direction. His face was covered with blood because of the shattered glass," the man said.
