Knicks fans set school bus on fire in Times Square madness: 'I'm scared for my homies!'

nypost.com

Knicks mania turned into complete insanity in Times Square when fans smashed and tore apart several school buses in the packed party hub — including one that was left completely engulfed in fire.

One bus was completely torched after the maniacs lit pieces of clothing on fire and tossed it inside — even as their fellow havoc-makers danced on the roof.

Wild footage shows the maniacs ripping the buses to shreds as they stood parked near the 42nd Street subway station.

Fans tore the hood off several of the trucks — and the brazen fans boldly stood on top of the exposed engines.

Others were smashing glass beer bottles into the street.

“I’m scared for my homies!” one terrified fan screamed in the mayhem.

In one video, a woman can be seen worrying about the financial cost. “You know our tax-payer dollars go to public schools, right?” she yelled.

The NYPD ultimately intervened around 2:30 a.m. — well over an hour after the hooligans started the school bus carnage. Police said early Sunday that no arrests had been made.

The maniacs started by ripping off the grills and mirrors from the trucks.

One shirtless man smashed the grill onto the street before dozens joined him in jumping on top of it and smashing it to pieces, shocking video shows.

One destroyed bus was graffiti with “Let’s Go Knicks” and “F–k ICE.”

Fans attempted to bring the same destruction down on another bus parked in the area, but the distraught owner pleaded with the maniacs to leave the truck alone, according to freedomnews.

“This is f–king up my check. This is coming out of my check!” the driver said before using his body to protect the bus from the maniacs.

It was not immediately clear if anyone was arrested in the mayhem.
