Down in the city's China Basin arrondissement on Thursday afternoon, SF Weekly employees Muni passengers reached the boiling point after being left "stranded for hours." Yikes. Stones and curse words, it seems, were then tossed at passing buses.
SF Weekly's Erin Sherbert reports:
At about 3:20 p.m. on Thursday, the Fourth Street Bridge across Mission Creek, a drawbridge, became stuck in the open position -- meaning T-trains couldn't cross. Muni was forced to reroute buses, dropping passengers off at the Mission Rock station -- and leaving them there for the long haul.As passengers waited for more buses to come and pick them up, they grew hungry, tired -- and angry. As more and more riders were discharged at Mission Rock station, those who had been waiting for more than an hour grew agitated -- yelling, screaming, and throwing detritus at bus drivers.
No arrests were made; a small victory was won.
