Well riding SEPTA on a daily basis you expect something out of the ordinary to happen every now and then but i never saw this coming. On Friday i was on the 50 coming from Franklin Mills. The ride ride was uneventful until right after we passed Comly when a kid shot at 5567 with either an Air Rifle or BB Gun. The round hit the window directly behind me and had it been an actual rifle i'd be dead or paralyzed from the neck down. And yesterday i was on 5521 pulling out of Frankford on the 25 when we struck a car that cut us off in an attempt to beat us at the intersection. A woman and and one of her 3 daughters were thrown to floor, and a folded shopping cart she was placing on the wheelwell landed on them. The woman and her daughters were taken to the hospital. The driver of the car was 100% at fault. Drivers attempt to cut buses off at that intersection on a daily basis and i'm shocked this didn't happen sooner!

Was this Comly depot or Comly Road?

That is sick. And I am not happy with those 'hoodlums that run about.
