"The Police Department is working closely with the Municipal Transportation Agency to solve this case. When we do, we will coordinate with the District Attorney and City Attorney's Offices to hold these persons accountable for their actions and to see that restitution is paid."
Police say the 8X-Bayshore Express Muni bus was set on fire about 12:30 a.m. Monday at Market and Third streets. The video, which was recorded by a witness, shows the two suspects torching the bus as it stopped on Market Street.
Muni says eight passengers and the driver exited the bus, escaping the fire; however, the $700,000 bus was certainly injured beyond repair.
The cops released this photo of the second suspect wanted in connection to the arson.
