WASHINGTON (WHDH) - Police in Washington D.C. have identified the woman who went on a tirade that left a Greyhound bus damaged and one man injured on Thursday.
A cellphone camera captured the moment a woman took a wooden baseball bat to the side of a Greyhound bus in the area of 1800 Bladensburg Road before she hit a man who was trying to call 911 with her car several times as she tried to flee the scene.
The driver of the Greyhound bus called the woman “crazy” after she allegedly sideswiped the transit vehicle.
In reaction, the woman exited her vehicle and smashed the bus’ window with the bat, causing extensive damage.
Several passengers tried to intervene but were thrown aside by the woman as she tried to leave the area.
In an attempt to stall her departure, a witness stepped in front of her vehicle and tried to contact police.
She struck this man several times with her car before taking off with him hanging onto the hood.
The man was thrown off just a few yards down the street. He was not seriously hurt.
The woman is expected to face several charges once she is in police custody.
We have identified the suspect involved in this incident that occurred in the 1800 block of Bladensburg Road, NE on 8/30.
The incident was captured on a cell phone video and can be seen below. This case remains under investigation. #DCPolice #HereToHelp pic.twitter.com/wjti63DycR
