“A thousand roaches” force evacuation of loaded bus

By Rick Couri

The Greyhound bus was on the way from Atlantic City New Jersey to New York City when the little critters began showing up everywhere.

Passengers said the bugs were falling from the ceiling, flowing up walls and crawling all over riders clothes. No more than fifteen minutes into the trip the driver was forced to pull the bus to the side of the road and allow all the two legged passengers to get off.

One of the disgusted travelers told CNN "there's like a thousand roaches, and when I say infested, I mean infested.”

Greyhound sent a less infested bus to pick up the folks and completed the trip.

And just like several cruises in the last few months, everyone will get a complete refund.

A worker at the bus company said they were "investigating how they got there, in bags or from the bus."
