The vicious attack
A bus driver is facing a prison sentence after street CCTV cameras allegedly recorded him viciously attacking a helpless disabled man.
The young disabled man was waiting to get on the bus in the Lurigancho-Chosica district of the Lima Province in Peru, but the driver is accused of knocking him down as he pulls up to the bus stop.
Instead of stopping to help, the driver then apparently carries on driving forward to pick up other passengers further down the line.
The disabled man, furious at being knocked over and left lying there, then used one of his crutches to bang against the windows of the bus in frustration as the driver is accused of stopping the bus, walking back to the man and kicking him hard.
Moments later, policemen and paramedics arrive on the scene, to attend to the victim and arrested his attacker.
A police spokesman said: "It seems a clear-cut case of an unprovoked assault."
If found guilty, the bus driver could be jailed for up to two years.
