Buses vandalized with pro-Palestinian messages

Last week’s pro-Palestinian protest messages weren’t limited to UW-Madison’s Library Mall.

Madison police are investigating an incident in which 27 school buses belonging to First Student were marked with black spray paint with messages of support for Palestinians, amid Israeli attacks in Gaza in response to Hamas attacks from October 7.
