An argument over a window fogging up on a Seattle bus allegedly led to the driver being maced and then stabbed to death by a passenger, who was caught using public transit again days later — casually snoozing next to other riders, according to police.

Richard Sitzlack, 53, was arrested early Saturday morning and charged with second-degree murder for the fatal stabbing of King County Metro Coach driver Shawn Yim last Wednesday along his Route 70 bus route near the intersection of 15th Avenue Northeast and Northeast 41st Street, according to the Seattle Police Department. Yim, 59, was attempting to keep a window open on the bus to prevent it from fogging up when Sitzlack began arguing with him over keeping it closed, according to charging documents obtained by The Seattle Times.
