DC Bus Driver Caught On Video Tossing Passenger Onto Street
A bus driver for Washington, D.C.’s Metro service could be in some hot water with his superiors after he was caught on video forcibly removing a passenger from his bus over the weekend.
The video is below and while the sound isn’t the best, the passenger seemed to be saying that he will get off at the next stop, while the driver insists that he’s getting off the bus right now.
Apparently wishing to be done with the matter, the driver then grabs the passenger, forces him through the door and onto the street.
A Metro spokesman called the driver’s actions “completely inappropriate” and said should have contacted Metro Transit Police to deal with an unruly passenger.
Authorities say they are trying to identify the driver.
