Authorities reported that one person died after being shot on a commuter bus in Atlanta, sparking a dramatic police chase that spanned several miles into an outlying suburb. The incident unfolded when officers responded to a report of gunfire and a possible hostage situation on the bus near downtown Atlanta.
TV news helicopters captured the pursuit of the Gwinnett County Transit bus, which collided with multiple vehicles and even drove on the wrong side of the road as police vehicles trailed behind. Despite attempts by law enforcement to stop the bus, it continued weaving through traffic until it was eventually halted in DeKalb County. The suspect, Joseph Grier, 39, was taken into custody, and a victim with a gunshot wound was found on the bus and later succumbed to their injuries at a hospital.
