(CBS) SAN FRANCISCO - A video of suspects believed to be responsible for setting a Municipal Railway bus on fire after the Giant's World Series victory on Sunday has been released by the San Francisco police, CBS San Francisco reports.

Police are asking for the public's help in identifying the suspects.

On Monday at around 12:30 a.m., the 8X-Bayshore Express Muni bus was torched and vandalized. A video recorded by a witness shows two suspects lighting the bus on fire after it stopped on Market Street.

A photo of a man smashing the windshield of the Muni bus that spread on social media helped police identify and arrest Gregory Tyler Graniss, 22. Graniss confessed to the vandalism, police Chief Greg Suhr said at a news conference.

The San Francisco Police say they hope that social media will also help in identifying the two suspects who allegedly burned the bus.
