Police are searching for an aggrieved passenger seen leaving the scene of an inferno in Cape Road on Thursday morning after allegedly threatening to burn down a bus following an altercation about a lost cellphone.
Commuters were left stranded at the weekend as a confrontation between Integrated Public Transport System (IPTS) drivers and the Spectrum Alert board reached boiling point, leading to armed security closing down the depot in Cleary Park on Friday.
“They are an illegal board and are doing the same thing as they did in 2019.”These were the words of a shareholder at Spectrum Alert, Teresa Heydenrycht, who hit out at four allegedly suspended directors who attempted to force their way into the company’s Mill Park office on Monday.
