The California Highway Patrol said a gunman killed one passenger and wounded five others on a Greyhound bus traveling from Los Angeles to the San Francisco Bay Area early Monday morning.

The shooting happened at about 1:20 a.m. as the bus was on the Grapevine section of Interstate 5 high in the mountains between Los Angeles and the San Joaquin Valley. The bus driver got the shooter off the bus and left him on the highway shoulder, where he was arrested without incident, Sgt. Brian Pennings told reporters. He had no immediate information about the motive. After leaving the gunman behind, the driver continued on to the next exit and pulled into the parking lot of a gas station. The bus was carrying about 40 passengers.
