## Coverage angles

Both sides report the same facts (nighttime assault at Shakespeare stop, masked individuals, fireballs, 56-year-old driver), but the right emphasizes the physical violence suffered by the driver and his ejection from the vehicle.

**Common ground**

- Assault on October 18 around 10 p.m. at the Shakespeare stop, Hautepierre sector
- Masked individuals involved
- CTS driver aged 56
- Five fireballs shot into the bus

**Differences**

- The right explicitly mentions that the driver was struck and ejected from his vehicle, a detail absent from the title and excerpt of the center side
