SEPTA passengers were terrified when shots hit the bus they were sitting on as it traveled through Northeast Philadelphia Saturday.

The driver called police around 9:30 p.m. Friday when a male suspect fired at the Route 20 bus while it was driving near the intersection of Roosevelt Boulevard and Cottman Avenue, according to reports.

About 50 passengers were on board when the shots were fired.

Authorities are unsure if the shooter was targeting the bus or if it was caught in the crossfire.

Officials say no one on the bus was injured.

As soon as the bus was struck, the bus operator drove to the Frankford Transportation Center to wait for police.

The vehicle is being held while both the Philadelphia Police Department and SEPTA Police investigate.
