I got the bus today after school with my children, I had bought some chicken and chips from the shop which was for my son I was holding it in a bag, a few stops later a woman with a dog got on. As she got on the dog came straight towards me and up into my face, as I was sat down the dog was eye level with me and it was a huge dog, the woman made no attempt to pull it back so i moved my bag over because of the chicken i assumed thats what it wanted. She went to the back then started loudly shouting and swearing about me calling me an fing b*tch and how her dog doesnt want whats in my bag she went into some massive rant and kept loudly screaming things out. she got up and came over to where I was sitting (she only went one stop) and continued to shout abuse at me she kept spitting as she was shouting and towering over me so I stood up and told her to leave me alone and then she kicked me in the stomach and got off the bus, I am really shaken up still and my stomach still hurts even though this happened at 4pm, I keep questioning what i did wrong? all i did was move my bag, im not scared of dogs and wasnt worried i just moved the bag because it had chicken in it. All this was infront of my children and im upset they saw someone assualt me like that and I felt powerless. it doesnt even feel real I cant believe someone could be that angry, i have reported it but have no faith in the police sadly.

Contact the bus company and see if this bus has CCTV. Sounds like a horrible situation :(

There's CCTV on all buses I believe so the Police should be able to identify and arrest her for assault.

You did nothing wrong. She's just a horrible violent woman.

Wow, that's awful @Clumsy12345. Didn't the driver stop to remove her? You didn't do anything wrong, it sounds as though she was a crazy. Absolutely follow up with the bus company.

She’s a horrible person with a screw loose somewhere.
Did you ask the driver to act as a witness or the other passengers? Definitely get onto the bus company, they should be able to back up your report.

Tell the police. She assaulted you and there will very likely be CCTV on the bus. You didn’t do anything wrong. Some people are just violent unfortunately and will go out of their way to find trouble.

Definitely something far wrong with her, nothing you could have done.

Elderflower14 · 02/07/2024 22:46

I'm so sorry that this happened to you... Please report to the police.. She will almost definitely do this to someone else!! 😔 😔 😔

Police will obtain the cctv if you report it.
Disgusting pig of a woman.
I hope you are ok and are resting now, you must be so shaken up. She assaulted you, criminal offence.
