Stacey Farley said it was a case of a 'parent defending her child'
A woman who filmed a disturbance on a Stagecoach bus on Friday has spoken to the ECHO to "set the record straight" over what happened.
Merseyside Police confirmed to the ECHO that officers were contacted just after 6pm following reports of a disturbance on a Stagecoach bus. On Friday evening, mum-of-two Stacey was travelling alone on the single-decker bus, heading home from work. She sat next to a teenage girl, who was seated next to her mum. A man was sitting directly in front of them, who Stacey claims was "acting oddly".
According to Stacey, the man began filming the mum and her daughter. She claims the mum then "slapped his phone away" and it hit the man's friend, who was sitting nearby. The mum reportedly "started screaming" at the driver to stop the bus, then shielded her daughter as they walked through the vehicle to get to the front.
A loud bang can be heard, but the video does not show if the phone made contact with the man or a window. People start shouting and screaming and pushing towards the front of the bus, while others shout to close the door. Merseyside Police said: "Nobody further identified themselves to officers at the scene, or have since come forward, to report being a victim of any crime and enquiries remain ongoing."
