Calls for Security on Buses After Sefo Leger Stabbing

The stabbing death of bus passenger Sefo Leger in Auckland has prompted widespread sharing of public transport experiences among Herald readers, highlighting issues like aggression from drug-affected individuals and attacks on children. Leger was attacked by another passenger on a bus, managed to exit, but later succumbed to his injuries in the hospital. The suspected attacker remained on the bus and allegedly assaulted another man. Despite this incident, violence on Auckland’s public transport is statistically rare, with 1.7 million journeys recorded without incident last week.
