So just a warning to my fellow public transit commuters. Just was at a bus stop and had some kids (or I assume, they better be) drive by and shoot something at me with something similar to a bb gun. Of course they hit my neck which I can already feel turning into bruises but no major injuries.

Just made ruined my day a bit and I needed to vent to someone. Stand back from the curb people!

That's lousy. Sorry that happened to you.

Wrong town to be pointing toy guns at people in. Kids might easily end up with a real one pointed back at them...

Either a BB gun or an orbiez gun. Both can leave bruises if you're close enough, and they used to do this all the time.

There’s a group doing the same thing at Taylor Ave and Loch Raven Blvd.

Sounds like someone being an idiot with an airsoft gun.

I’m so sorry to hear about that. I use public transportation and I’m always extremely weary about safety.

If they’re driving, don’t they have to be 18? Oh sorry, what was I thinking.
