MILAN – Italian authorities say a bus driver transporting schoolchildren stopped his vehicle on a provincial highway, told the passengers to get off and then doused the interior with gasoline and set it on fire.
Italian media reported that the driver, an Italian of Senegalese origin, was immediately apprehended. The motive for the arson attack Thursday morning on the outskirts of Milan was unclear.
An official told Sky TG24 that the middle school-age children alerted authorities, aiding a speedy emergency response. Twelve children and two adults were taken the hospital but authorities reported only one injury.
Video showed firefighters dousing the bus that had been completely gutted by flames, leaving only the charred metal frame. ANSA said the bus was carrying about 50 children from the Lombard province of Cremona.

Oh come now. Celebrate diversity!
“unclear”
Sure it is. Just like everything else is “unexpected”.
Sheer terror.
Should have tossed the muzzie back into the burning bus before dousing it.

MAGA! GREAT GIF!!
Not a peep about it in the commie press, same goes for the Jihadist attack in the Netherlands..if a Muslim does it, the media will ignore it
Nothing to see here. Just islamic multiculturalism at its finest.
It would never have happened if it weren’t for Trump. /s
I’m confused by the way this is written. He told all the passengers to get off BEFORE he set it on fire? Is that correct?
YOU ARE RIGHT, It’s confusing..
The kids were still on the bus when he lit the fire. People smashed the windows and got the kids off, apparently.
He has a criminal record for drunken driving and sexual molestation of a minor since he came to Italy in 2004.
He took the cellphones from all the kids and the adult monitors--had the monitors bind up the kids with cables--told them all that "no one would survive today!"
Definitely he was ready to incinerate the bus and all aboard if the cops had not stopped him.
Great detail on the story with a video of the scene in this report.
Sudden Jihad syndrom. Fox says motive unknown. You’d think they would get tired if that same old lie.
