A bus depot inferno in KZN

Estimated damage of more than 20-million rand was caused when 59 buses were set alight at a bus depot in Umlazi south of Durban early Sunday morning. Private motor vehicles were apparently also damaged. Police say neither the cause nor the motive is known for the attack that took place at about three-thirty. Fire-fighters have cordoned off the remaining 95-odd intact buses on the premises. A case of malicious damage to property has been opened and police experts from Pretoria are being flown in to aid in the investigation.
