Man charged in fatal shooting on Metro Transit bus

February 7, 2020 By Bill Werner

A 26-year-old man faces second-degree murder charges in a shooting on a Metro Transit bus near Target Center Thursday night that left one person dead and another in critical condition. Investigators say surveillance video shows Malcom Lessley appearing to talk to one of the victims before taking out a handgun and fatally shooting that person in the face, then shooting another person in the head. It happened on a C-line rapid bus that runs between Brooklyn Center and downtown Minneapolis, and is believed to be the first shooting on board a Metro Transit bus in a decade.
