The confrontation between the rider, left, and the driver, right was caught by security cameras.
Olympia, Washington – A bus driver was attacked by an unruly passenger in this Southern Washington city of 47,000 people nick-named “Little San Francisco”. The surveillance camera recorded the public transit operator instructing 24-year-old Kiel Duggins to temper his language. The young adult displayed no regard for the driver’s authoritative position at which time the driver stopped the bus and approached Duggins ordering him to leave.
It was at this time that the driver seemingly shoves Duggins in an attempt to get him off the bus at which time Duggins “let off” of the driver fracturing his nose and leaving him with lacerations and contusions. Had another patron not pulled Duggins off the driver, the beating could have ended up worse for both parties. Police were called and Duggins was arrested and charged with second-degree assault. He is currently in country lock up pending a $20,000 bond.

The bus driver is a seven year veteran of the transit system and in all likelihood should not have attempted to shove Duggins off the bus but simply phoned 911 after the passenger refused to exit. Thankfully, the driver’s injuries were relatively minor and he was released after getting his wounds dressed at the hospital.
