Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York – Police say a man
set fire to a Jewish school bus in Williamsburg.
The incident happened last month near Division and Bedford
avenues. Police say the suspect got into the parked and unoccupied bus through
its emergency door. Once aboard, the suspect ignited a collection of religious
books he found inside the glove compartment, police sources confirmed. The fire
caused minor damage to the front of the bus.
He then took off.
Police say the suspect was last seen wearing a sweatsuit
and dark-colored sneakers. Surveillance video of him was released on Wednesday.
