An August 3rd news report reveals that on the evening of July 30th, a bus on Route one twenty in Beijing exploded. Following an emergency investigation into the incident, Communist authorities have placed additional security personnel in all public transport vehicles in Beijing.
On July thirty first, Beijing authorities issued important instructions to each and every conductor working on buses that searching handbags is more important then selling tickets. Currently, bus conductors have greater powers to check commuter luggage.

The chief of Route 21 has been dismissed, the incident is known within the public transport system, but the incident is to be kept from the media.
