The driver of the SEPTA bus was initially unsure if the shooting happened on the bus or outside of the bus, Pace explained. The driver continued to drive a couple of blocks and informed the SEPTA control center which sent the information to police. The Philadelphia Police Department's Aviation Unit was in the air and was able to assist the officers on the ground as they followed the silver car, according to Pace.
In surveillance video obtained by NBC10, the driver of the stolen vehicle, wearing a brown-colored sweater, is seen jumping out of the car as it's still moving and running away. The car is then seen crashing into a parked car and ending up on the sidewalk. Surveillance video captured the moment that a suspect connected to a shooting on a crowded SEPTA bus jumped out of a moving car as he was chased by police.
