A bus driver punched his passenger in the face and dragged him off the bus.
Around 2.20pm on September 7, 2023, a man was travelling on a First Bus.This resulted in an altercation and the driver, Andrew Woodhouse, asked the man to leave the bus. He refused.The 55-year-old applied force to remove the man from the bus. He dragged him towards the first doorway.
He appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court last week, after he pleaded guilty to assaulting a man, kicking him on the body, pulling and dragging him off the bus.His lawyer said:"He is 55 years old. He lives with his wife. He is a man who is in full-time employment. He is still employed by West Coast Buses. He has no previous convictions."The complainer was verbally abusive towards a wheelchair user. He became more and more abusive. He asked him to leave but he did not.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
