Rocks have been thrown at four buses in Seabrook in the past two weeks, prompting calls for community support to help catch the offenders.
The rocks were thrown at ComfortDelgro Cabcharge (CDC) buses on routes 494, 495 and 496, along Point Cook Road, near Allington Place.
Protective film prevented windows from shattering and only minor damage was done to the buses.
No one was injured.
But CDC group operations manager George Konstantopoulos said something needed to be done given the incidents happened near Seabrook Primary School.
“It’s purely coincidental that no one was hurt, but we fear it’s only a matter of time unless the perpetrators are caught,” he said.
“We’re deeply concerned for the safety and welfare of our passengers and drivers.
“This is quite an affluent area and we haven’t had any issues here before, but the recent incidents are enough for us to reach out to the community asking them to contact Crime Stoppers should they have any knowledge of, or witness to, these attacks.
“The community could potentially be the biggest loser out of this situation because if it continues to happen we will have to go to Public Transport Victoria and seek a diversion of these routes.
“We hope these incidents cease before it gets to that.”
Anyone who know anything about the incidents is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
