The victim, Marcel\u200b Da&#8217;jon Wagner, 21, was\u2062 found shot on board \u200ba bus in White Center, a neighborhood\u2063 just south of Seattle, on October 3. \u2063Miguel is currently \u200dwanted by authorities.<\/p>\n<p>According to court documents, Miguel has no\u2063 prior criminal record.

The agency has doubled \u2064the number\u200b of unarmed security guards to 140 and employs around 60 Metro Transit Police officers. However,\u2063 staffing shortages remain a challenge for transit \u2063departments nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>This\u2063 incident is part of a disturbing trend of violence on public transportation. In recent months, there have been \u2062cases of shootings, stabbings, and fatal beatings in various cities. These incidents highlight the\u2064 need for improved safety measures and increased vigilance.<\/p>\n<p>According \u2064to the charging documents, Miguel boarded the bus wearing a ski mask and shot Wagner without any provocation. The attack was captured on bus surveillance video, which also showed the stunned reactions of other passengers. \u200dMiguel then\u2062 fired two shots through the rear doors of the bus \u2062before fleeing with a friend.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators were able to identify Miguel by tracking \u200dhim \u200dand\u2064 his \u2063friend through\u2062 surveillance cameras in the area. They eventually\u2063 located Miguel&#8217;s\u2064 residence \u2062and questioned his friend, \u200bwho confirmed his involvement in the shooting. Surveillance footage\u200b from a local Boys and Girls\u200d Club also \u200cshowed Miguel \u2062changing clothes and removing his\u2064 mask after the incident.<\/p>\n<p>The senseless nature of this \u2063crime has\u2063 led prosecutors to request a bail of \u200c$3 million for Miguel,\u2062 citing concerns about his potential for future violent offenses.
