At least six passengers were shot on a Greyhound bus that was traveling from Los Angeles to San Francisco, California, according to officials.
Officials said a suspect, who was not identified, is in custody. They didn’t elaborate on a motive.
Pennings said that after the shooting, the bus driver pulled over on the right shoulder. The gunman then left the bus voluntarily and left his firearm behind, the LA Times reported.
The driver then drove to the nearest freeway exit at Grapevine Road and stopped at a Valero gas station, he told the paper.
Five people were taken to hospitals for medical treatment, while the woman was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the report. The extent of the hospitalized victims’ injuries is not clear.
Details about their ages, genders, and identities were not released.
“I’ve been on for 25 years and I’ve never seen this happen,” Pennings said.
Grapevine is located south of Bakersfield.
