Authorities are looking for a man who punched and stabbed a Metro bus driver Saturday in Willowbrook.
The attacker armed with a knife began yelling at the driver, who stopped at about 8:30 p.m. near 119th Street and Wilmington Avenue in the southern Los Angeles County community. The man punched the driver and stabbed him with the knife when the bus stopped at the Willowbrook/Rosa Parks Station, according to the sheriff's department.
"The suspect, without provocation, punched the victim in the face then proceeded to stab the victim," the sheriff's department said in a statement."Metro is saddened to hear about this senseless act of violence against our bus operator, which was apparently fueled by drug abuse and untreated mental illness -- crises that are plaguing our nation," the statement continued.
Early Saturday morning, a stabbing was reported on a Metro bus in the 2700 block of West Sunset Boulevard in the Silver Lake area. One passenger stabbed another. The victim was hospitalized in stable condition. One person was arrested.
