A man was arrested and taken to jail last night for assaulting a bus driver in the Downtown Eastside.
“A #VPD officer walking the beat in the Downtown Eastside last night attempted to arrest a suspect who had just assaulted a bus driver,” said the Vancouver Police Department.
Instead of cooperating, the suspect “punched the officer in the face”. The police officer was still able to handcuff the suspect and no serious physical injuries were sustained.
