Shots fired at Hertha bus

AFP, BERLIN: Shots were fired at the Hertha Berlin team bus on Sunday a day before the Bundesliga side play their German Cup clash at Bielefeld in an incident which overshadowed the first round of matches.
“It’s crazy. We consider this as attempted murder,” said shocked Hertha team manager Michael Preetz, who revealed that only the driver had been in the bus at the time and had miraculously escaped unscathed.
“Our driver was going from the hotel to the train station at Bielefeld to collect the team,” explained Preetz.
“An unidentified person on a motorbike fired at the bus,” he said, adding that “the type of firearm used has not yet been determined”.
A photo posted by the club on Twitter showed the impact of the bullet which smashed a hole in the windscreen at the level of the driver’s head.
