LOS ANGELES -- An elderly man was terrorized on a Metro bus and it was all caught on camera. Another bus rider appears to strike the man and screams at him after the older man accidentally sat on him.
The incident happened around 8 p.m. Wednesday near Wilshire Avenue and Vermont Boulevard.
"I started filming it for my husband who doesn't realize all the crazy stuff that happens on the bus all the time, and then it got really intense," said Erica Rodriguez, who captured the incident on camera.
Rodriguez says she's not really surprised that no one stepped in to help the man.
"It was definitely scary. I mean, you hear about people on buses with guns all the time in L.A. and it was concerning, but luckily, that didn't happen," said Rodriguez.
The bus finally stopped and most riders got off. Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies say they did get a call about the incident, but say the man was gone by the time they arrived.
Where is Epic Bearded Man when you need him?
Sickening. That guy on the tape was pretty loud and intimidating. I’d like to know if he is “Police”.
I don’t have a beard but I could not have stood by and watched that. No idea what would have happened but it wouldn’t have continued the way it did.
It is. horrible
Barry should be so darn proud of himself and Michelle with their skin-color-baiting. Shameful and dishonest they are, and criminal.
Pity somebody did not get up and knock this racist bully sob flat.
Bump
