Jaheed Fields of Newark is facing several charges including murder and attempted murder.
Police say a bus operating on the 94 line was traveling at the intersection of Stuyvesant Avenue and Stanley Terrace when a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction swerved into the path of the bus, striking it head on.
The chase began when police in Union were investigating a report of a home invasion. It ended when the driver bailed out of the vehicle in the westbound lanes in Newark.
A home invasion problem that has been pervasive in New Jersey, has now appeared in Union County, where cameras caught burglars invading a home and stealing a car.
The victim was apparently trapped in a second-floor bedroom of the home on Weber Street.
