A bus driver and a passenger were both injured in an exchange of gunfire on a North Carolina city bus earlier this month, local transportation authorities said. The May 18 shooting began after the passenger asked to get off the bus between designated stops, according to a Charlotte Area Transit System news release. A verbal argument between driver and passenger escalated when the passenger, identified as Omarri Shariff Tobias, began taunting the driver.
The driver, David Fullard, then reveals a gun of his own. A company spokesperson told CNN that both men fired their weapons “in rapid succession” as two other passengers on the bus scrambled for cover, though it is not clear who shot first. Both men suffered non-life-threatening bullet injuries in the incident.
