WINDSOR, Ont. - A Greyhound bus driver is being heralded for quick thinking during an incident on his Windsor-to-Toronto route today.
Provincial police Const. Janet Hayes says the bus was on Hwy. 401 just east of Windsor when a passenger jumped to his feet, began screaming and grabbed the driver. Hayes says the driver was able to quickly subdue the passenger while safely pulling the bus over to the side of the highway.
Once the bus was stopped, says Hayes, the driver was able to get the passenger outside the vehicle and called police.
No one was injured and Hays says while police don't expect to lay any charges, that could change as the investigation proceeds.
The passenger, a 46-year-old man from Mississauga, Ont., was taken by ambulance to a hospital to be examined.
