A man was shot dead on a bus on Sunday, prompting the union leader for CTA operators to say they are fed up with criminals putting the lives of riders and employees at risk.

"The senseless violence that happened on the system today," said ATU Local 241 President Keith Hill. "What if it was a baby on the bus, what if it was a senior citizen."
