A 38-year old man is facing charges of assault causing bodily harm and mischief in connection with an attack on a city bus driver.
According to Terrebonne police, the incident occurred at around 5:50 PM at the bus stop at Ste-Anne Boulevard and Therrien Street. The man had entered the Exo 23 bus at the Sainte-Therese station and was asked to put on a face mask before boarding, as required by public health guidelines.
He complied by putting on a bandana. During the trip, however, the bus driver reminded the same passenger to put his face mask on. When the bus reached the stop, the man got up, walked toward the front of the bus, opened the plexiglass window protecting the driver, and punched her in the face.
The 55-year old woman was transported to a hospital to receive treatment for a facial fracture.
