The second happened between 1.45pm and 2pm on the Clifton-Temple Meads route on March 11.
Police want to speak to witnesses to determine exactly what was being played on the laptop, but it is not believed to have been of a sexual nature.
Mr Dunscombe added: “Any person who travelled on these buses around the times described is asked to contact the police on 101, asking for PC 4200 Moncur at The Bridewell police station.”

“@bokkbokk.

Get some quality headphones moron.
Oh but first get arrested for threatening behaviour and go to prison for a while.”

"This guy reminds me of the people who insist on opening their windows when they play their music!We dont wanna hear it, shut ur windows!
Also the car drivers driving in their "speaker boxes"!
Stop it, you ant-social noise polluters, you'll go deaf!"
Either that, or you'll be crushed by a fire engine that you didn't hear coming."”

“I've heard the "offensive" material he played was something to do with that Catholic cardinal saying pedophiles aren't criminals. Yea, very offensive!”

“1. What did he look like (any description)?
2. Most people are chatting loudly to others or on mobiles where most of the words begin with "F" so its hardly worth mentioning anything about the music!!!”
