POLICE were today hunting a gang of yobs who carried out a violent attack on a bus full of passengers.

The youths used roadwork cones to block off the slip road leading from King Cross Street on to Burdock Way in Halifax – then hurled a brick straight through the windscreen.

As the glass smashed, the female driver of the minibus swerved, crashing into a car.
She is still off work with shock after the attack.

Police today revealed they had had several reports of youths moving the cones from the roadworks on Burdock Way to block off the slip road or yobs throwing cones at passing vehicles.
