FIRST has cut down its bus service to Bierley yet again after a brick was thrown at one of its vehicles en route.
West Yorkshire Police were called out to Ferrand Avenue to reports of criminal damage to a bus - just days after a similar incident.
Police said two youths threw a brick at the bus window, causing it to crack.
No one was injured during the incident and the bus was empty at the time.
The 620 service will be staying on Bierley Lane and returning at Rooley Lane, missing out Shetcliffe Lane, Ferrand Avenue and Burnham Avenue.
First said it was "sorry" for any inconvenience caused.
