TORONTO

Things got a little hairy on Toronto transit late Wednesday.

According to a Toronto Police tweet, someone set a person's hair on fire while on a TTC bus during the afternoon rush hour.

Const. David Hopkinson said it was “likely not” an accident.

Police tweeted it as an alleged assault that took place on a bus in the Queensway-Southport St. neighbourhood around 4 p.m.

"Passenger's hair set on fire by another," police wrote. "With a lighter. TTC holding."

The woman fled and officers searching in the area were unable to find her. There were no serious injuries.

In an unrelated incident, a woman apparently decided not to raise a stink after being sprayed with perfume by someone else.

“Apparently the passenger didn't like the way the woman smelled, so she sprayed her with perfume in her face,” said Const. Hopkinson.

The alleged assault took place on another TTC bus in the Finch Ave.-Alness St. area around 4 p.m.

“The woman called police, we showed up, but at the end of the day, the victim did not want to continue with charges. That's the end of that one,” Hopkinson said.
