A 41-year-old man was shot to death after confronting a teen rider for talking too loudly on his phone aboard a Bronx MTA bus Monday — and his killer remains on the loose, cops said.
The victim was struck in the stomach on a Bx36 bus on E. Tremont Ave. near White Plains Road about 2:30 p.m., police said.
Police sources said the victim had confronted the gunman about speaking too loudly on a phone, when the male teen pulled a pistol and shot him.
Medics rushed the victim to Jacobi Medical Center, where he died. His name was not immediately released.
The shooter was last seen fleeing south on White Plains Road and has not been caught. He was wearing a white T-shirt and carrying a black handgun, according to law enforcement sources.
