A mother and her nine-year-old son have described how they were left traumatised when a brick was thrown through a bus window during a ride home from school. The attack happened when the pair were making their way home on a Go North West service in Middleton on Thursday night, after the boy had finished lessons at Bowlee Park Community Primary School . Trouble erupted after the bus driver refused to allow youths onto the number 18 service when they refused to pay.
One of them threw a brick which smashed through the window where the boy was sitting, his mother said. The brick did not hit them. It landed beside them but they were covered in glass, they said. The bus company described the incident a a 'senseless act of vandalism'. The boy told the Manchester Evening News: "I'm fine but my mum is not. We are traumatised to get back on the bus. We're just scared.
