Back in December some rioters attacked a 37 bus in the Haight. Photos of the suspects have been released.

The incident happened after a party at "a nearby retail store" at the corner of Haight and Ashbury, where hundreds of people were gathered in the store and on the sidewalk. (We'll let you speculate as to what store that might have been, since the name won't be disclosed until they police decide how much responsibility falls to the store, although guessing shouldn't be too difficult.) Allegedly, a swarm of about 30 revelers attacked the bus, spray-painting the sides and smashing windows. When another 37 stopped because of the chaos, they attacked that one too. Here are the photos they released from Muni's security cams. Anyone with more information is asked to call San Francisco police’s anonymous tip line at (415) 575-4444 or text a tip to TIP411 with “SFPD” in the beginning of the message.
