Bus Beating
Union offers reward in driver attack
"The alleged beating and sexual assault of a Bronx bus driver prompted her union Tuesday to offer a $5,000 reward for the capture of her attacker."
What happened?
"The unidentified driver, 34, was attacked late Monday night by the lone passenger aboard the Bx. 21 at the end of the route at the intersection of E. 136th Street and Lincoln Avenue, police said.
"Once there, the suspect dragged her to the back of the bus, punched her in the face and tried to remove her sweater, police said. He then fled."
Tidbit: There are about 9,500 bus operators working for NYC Transit. To put that in perspective, the town I grew up in had about 2,000 people.
