Moscow: A married couple died of suffocation after an unidentified suspect set a passenger bus on fire in downtown Moscow Thursday, the investigation committee said in a statement.
“According to witnesses, an unidentified man who later fled the scene was sitting in the back of the bus and set on fire two plastic canisters with gasoline,” the statement said.
The fire broke out in the bus which was about to leave for the Vladimir city, as passengers were boarding the vehicle at around 6.00 a.m. The couple could not get out of the bus in time and died of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by the fire.
