POLICE are investigating two reports of criminal damage on buses passing through Bradford's biggest estate.
The two incidents occurred earlier this week on Wednesday and Thursday at 7.30pm in Holme Wood.
West Yorkshire Police say local neighbourhood officers will be providing reassurance in the area.
Yesterday afternoon a couple of bus services were forced to divert due to the anti-social behaviour.
The 617 and 618 services avoided Broadstone Way - which runs through the heart of the estate.
The bus company made passengers aware through a post on X just after 4pm.
