Halifax Regional Police is investigating a motor vehicle collision that occurred this morning on the Herring Cove Road in Halifax.
At approximately 9:20 a.m., a Metro Transit bus travelling inbound had a minor collision with another vehicle. The male driver exited his vehicle and proceeded to yell at the bus driver while striking the driver’s side window of the bus, causing the window to crack. The driver then got back into his vehicle and fled the scene.
There were eight passengers on the bus at the time of the incident. As a result of the bus coming to a sudden stop just before the collision, a 19-year-old female passenger was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Witnesses provided police with a vehicle description and a partial licence plate number. Based on this information, police are looking for a silver Pontiac Sunfire. Police will also be reviewing video footage captured by the Metro Transit video camera.
The investigation into this incident is ongoing.
