The 42-year-old driver was operating a Q18 bus at 27th Avenue and Fourth Street in Astoria around 5 p.m. Sunday when a passenger slugged him for no apparent reason, police said.
The attacker ran off the bus after the incident, and police did not have a description of the menace Monday morning. The driver was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, and the bus was taken out of service, according to cops and the MTA.Google Maps
“It is unconscionable that anyone would attack a bus operator who is simply doing his or her job,” MTA rep Michael Cortez said in a statement. “The MTA is cooperating fully with this investigation to ensure the perpetrator can be brought to justice.”
