Brawl Breaks Out Over Fare – Thug Grabs Phone and Kicks Walking Stick
The shocking theft happened just after 12.30pm on Wednesday, 29 June. The victim was travelling with her husband on the Route 233 bus along Marechal Niel Parade when trouble struck.
A man jumped on the bus but refused to pay his fare. He got into a heated row with the driver and even threatened to spit at him.
