BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore police say a city bus driver is hospitalized in serious condition after being shot by an angry passenger.

Police said they found the 30-year-old MTA driver at about 10:40 p.m. Saturday. He was taken to an area hospital and is listed in serious condition Sunday.

Police said the driver got into a “verbal dispute” with the suspect. After the man asked to be let off the bus, the driver dropped him off at the next scheduled stop.
