BRONX - SMILE! Young suspects who took a trio of school buses for a joy ride from a Bronx bus depot were caught on camera driving the stolen buses. Police released the new video in an attempt to catch the thieves.
Cops said thieves broke into the buses at the depot on Blondell Avenue off of Westchester Square at around midnight on Tuesday. They drove off with three short buses that the company said were spares and not in service.
Once the crooks got behind the wheel and drove the buses through the front gate and off the lot, cameras in each of the buses activated capturing the drivers in action.
According to published reports, one of the buses was recovered in front of a school in Crotona Park.
Another of the stolen buses was seen on the vehicle’s GPS as tracing to Springfield Gardens, Queens.
