Shocking video of jogger shoving woman into path of bus
A jogger has pushed a woman from a footpath and into the path of an oncoming bus on a London bridge.
The shocking incident was captured on CCTV and shows the 33-year-old woman walking across Putney Bridge on May 5 when a man, dressed in exercise gear, shoves her onto the ground in the path of a bus.
The bus narrowly misses the woman and passengers quickly get off to help the woman. The woman escaped with minor injuries.
The Metropolitan Police credits the bus driver’s “superb quick reactions” for avoiding the woman.
"The victim was put in extreme danger when she was knocked into the road. It was only due to the superb quick reactions of the bus driver that she was not hit by the vehicle,” Sergeant Mat Knowles said in an appeal for information today.
"We are keen to speak to the jogger in the CCTV about what happened that morning. We would urge him or anyone who recognises him to get in touch with us as soon as possible."
