EIGHTEEN people have been charged in connection with anti-social behaviour incidents on buses in Edinburgh.
In the latest attack on Monday night, eight buses were subjected to damage as large stones were thrown at windows. Operator Lothian Buses was forced to suspend services after the attacks on Gilmerton Road and Old Dalkeith Road.
It came after services to Clermiston were suspended following an attack in Dumbrae earlier this month.
Such incidents could have lead to “serious injury or even death”, Police Scotland warned.
The driver during the Dumbrae attack said he’d seen someone coming to his side and banging the bus. “Then I could see the rock coming towards my drivers’ window and it just shattered,” he said.
