A bus driver working for the Vanessa Express bus company in Jersey City was robbed of $300 around 1 a.m. this morning after the robber placed a gun against his temple and then shoved the barrel of the gun in the driver's mouth, police said.

The driver had just let two passengers off at Summit and Pavonia avenues when the robber asked him if he was going to Journal Square, according to reports.

After the driver said yes and pulled off with the man still aboard, the suspect placed the handgun on the right side of the his head and said "Give me the (expletive) money before I kill you," reports said.

The victim responded, "Calm down, calm down, I'll give it to you," and as he was looking for the money, the robber placed the handgun in his mouth, police reports said.

The bus driver handed over $300 and his cell phone and drove the bus back to Summit and Pavonia avenues where the robber fled on foot, reports said.
