This is the shocking moment a thug slaps a bus driver across the face in a ‘suspected road rage incident’.
Footage released by Cheshire Police shows the man walk onto a bus which has stopped on Newhaven Road, Warrington, and assault the driver.
The man, who has since been arrested, had been driving a black Ford S-Max and pulled up alongside the bus at 6.30pm on Friday, April 5.
The driver of the Ford exited his vehicle, got on the bus and slapped the driver, before going back to his car and driving off.
Police labelled the 31-year-old man’s behaviour as ‘abhorrent and completely unacceptable’.
The man was arrested following the incident and remains in custody at this time. Police say he is assisting them with their enquiries.
Inspector Lee Hillyard said: ‘This behaviour is abhorrent and completely unacceptable, and I’m pleased that the person responsible has been arrested.
‘Bus drivers provide a public service to the communities in Warrington, and they deserve to feel safe and respected while at work.
‘We’ll continue to work with our partners at Warrington Borough Council to ensure safety and support for those who help deliver public transport.’
