A TTC driver will likely have chemical burns on his arms and on one side of his head after a man shot a roman candle into a bus early Tuesday morning.
Police say the bus was near Driftwood Avenue and Yorkwood Gates when the driver opened the bus doors expecting to pick up a passenger. Instead, the suspect shot a roman candle firework in to the coach.
The driver sustained no visible injuries but felt a slight burning and tingling sensation. He was able to finish his route.
The suspect is described as male, black, about five-foot-seven, 155 pounds, 17 to 19 years of age wearing a dark black or blue hoodie and dark pants.
Police say they are reviewing usable security footage from the bus.
Anyone with information is asked to call police or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS.
