A Miami-Dade Transit bus driver, identified as Oshane Griffiths, resigns in the face of impending termination after police allege he shot and killed two passengers on Sunday morning. The incident occurred near Miami Gardens Drive when Griffiths refused entry to a customer carrying what he suspected was a stolen Citi bike. According to police reports, Griffiths shot the man in question and unintentionally hit another innocent passenger, leading to two fatalities, including 46-year-old Ejaash Carter and 44-year-old Lonnie Harley.
