Someone Fired Shots On A Westside Party Bus

Last night someone fired off a gun on a Westside party bus last night. What happened exactly is hard to tell, since apparently no one on the bus wanted to ruin the party by explaining to police what happened.
No one was hurt, but the shots were fired off sometime around 3:30 am on Sepulveda Boulevard right near where the 405 meets the 10 freeway, according to City News Service. There were about 30 people aboard and some sort of argument broke out. A 9 mm Beretta pistol was found on the bus, police said.
Los Angeles police Sgt. John Juarez of the West Los Angeles Station told CNS, "There was a possible bullet hole in the bus, and all the witnesses have been uncooperative."
