A Metropolitan Transportation Authority bus driver has died of complications from COVID-19, Los Angeles County officials said Friday.
The driver, whose name has not been released, died Thursday, union officials said. He last worked in mid-May, driving a route out of Division 13, the bus yard across the street from Union Station.
