POLICE have been asked to investigate a report of a mindless hooligan who shone a bright high-powered light at a Discovery D1 bus driver near Bradford on Avon earlier this week in an attempt to dazzle him.

First Bus driver Thomas Husband said the incident happened on Thursday while he was driving the vehicle around the Winsley bypass.

He said: “To whichever clever individual decided to shine a high-powered torch at the D1 bus going round the Winsley bypass just now, please remember to bring your brain with you the next time you leave the house. Details of this have been passed on to the police.”
