A Route 18 bus of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), the regional public transportation system in Philadelphia, was struck by gunfire, the outlet reported.

No one onboard the bus was injured.

The shooting occurred a day after two gunmen walked up to a SEPTA bus on Tuesday and opened fire, killing a 17-year-old boy.

Two women, aged 48 and 71, and two 15-year-old boys were also injured in Tuesday’s shooting, Philadelphia police commissioner Kevin Bethel said.
