An indictment was filed today (Tuesday) against a Haifa resident who assaulted a metro driver and caused a broken nose.
The police opened an investigation a week ago, upon receiving a complaint from the matron driver that he was attacked by a passenger.
The investigation of the incident reveals that after the driver warned the suspect passenger about his behavior, the suspect attacked the driver with a punch and later punched him in the face, chest and legs while threatening him and causing him many bruises and a broken nose.
Hard documentation: a Matron driver in Haifa was attacked by a passenger
The driver stopped at the Maginin station in Haifa and got out of the secure compartment, after hearing calls from the passengers to open the door.
One of the passengers who was on the bus with his wife and two small children, yelled at the driver to open the door immediately.
Probably because he didn't have time to get off.
The driver asked the passenger to address him politely, and the passenger in response hit him in the chest.
The bus driver informed the control that he was attacked, but did not have time to close the driver's compartment.
The passenger dropped off our family members and in front of their eyes he returned and attacked the driver while breaking his nose and bruising his chest and ribs.
The driver was released to his home while still suffering from breathing difficulties.
A complaint was filed with the Haifa police.
At the end of a strenuous investigation, the police of the Haifa station revealed the identity of the suspect in the act, a 31-year-old resident of Haifa, and arrested him for questioning.
The suspect's detention was extended from time to time and today, as mentioned, the prosecution division of the Israel Police filed an indictment against him and a request for his detention until the end of the proceedings.
