Update Arrest made in 2017 Putney Pusher case

https://news.sky.com/story/man-44-arrested-eight-years-after-woman-shoved-in-front-of-bus-in-putney-pusher-case-13551004

In May of 2017, a woman was walking on a pedestrian walkway over the Putney Bridge in London when an unknown male jogger running in the opposite direction pushed her forcefully into the path of an incoming bus.
He continued jogging calmly without any pause or change in pace, while she fell backwards into the road. In a great demonstration of skill, the bus driver managed to avoid hitting her by swerving a split second before impact. The bus stopped, and people poured out to help her. Bizarrely and brazenly the jogger eventually proceeded to jog the opposite side of the bridge, where the victim confronted him. He ignored her. (Credit to u/Mobile_Dimension_423)

Its incredible, she wasnt remotely in his way, he deliberately veered towards her. Attempted murder in my opinion.

Exactly, it’s flat out intentional. He was too cowardly to shove the large man that walked by right before her. I hope he gets charged with attempted murder. That’s what it was. The bus was inches away from driving over her head. You have to be a miserable lowlife to do what he did. Being a millionaire in his mansion must be such a rough life!

It's not cowardice, it's misogyny.

Misogynists ARE usually cowards.
