About 10:50 p.m., the 38-year-old was attempting to board a CTA bus and was refused entry because he was not wearing a mask, Chicago police said. The man then took out a gun and fired several shots at the bus as it was headed east on 95th Street.

Two rounds struck the doors of the bus, police said. No one was struck.
