周六,在紐約大都會捷運署(MTA)M15公交車上,上演了驚心動魄的一幕。
一名不守規矩的乘客暴力毆打這輛公交車的司機的頭部,並用刀指著他。但這名司機隨後奮力反抗,雖受了傷,但最終製服了這名襲擊者。
警方表示,事發時,這輛M15公交車正行駛在曼哈頓下城,車上的乘客、43歲的羅申·伊格爾(Rashon Eagle)猛地朝司機的頭部打了一拳,並用刀指著他。
58歲的司機被襲擊後非常沉著,奮力反擊,與嫌犯展開搏鬥,並最終設法奪下了襲擊者手中的刀,製服了他。
警方稱,涉事的伊格爾目前麵臨包括“襲擊和威脅”在內的多項指控。
而公交車司機已被送往表維醫院救治,據悉他臉上有幾處瘀傷,雙眼也有抓痕,但警方預計他並無大礙。
