TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Tucson Police confirm they’re investigating a shooting that happened inside a Sun Tran bus on Tuesday.

According to TPD, evidence shows the victim and suspect got into a verbal argument that escalated into a physical fight.

TPD said the bullet struck the rear seat area, and the suspect ran from the scene and is still outstanding.

Officers said they found a shell casing inside the bus, confirming evidence of the shooting.

No one was hurt, and the investigation is ongoing, officials said.
