A shocking incident unfolded on May 23 at Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium signal when a BMTC bus driver allegedly tried to run over a woman who had stopped the bus during an argument.

Though the incident occurred over a week ago, it came to light after dashcam footage from a nearby car went viral online. The video shows the bus driver recklessly moving the vehicle forward while the woman stood in front of it.

The BMTC bus was headed from Museum Road to MG Road when the confrontation occurred. The girl sustained minor injuries in the incident.

Meanwhile, in another incident, a woman was seen repeatedly slapping an auto-rickshaw driver with her slippers, allegedly after accusing him of running over her foot and recording her without consent. 

The video captures a heated exchange between the woman and the driver, with her demanding to know why he’s recording and who permitted him. The driver responds, “From whom do I need to take permission?” sparking a heated argument. The situation escalates, with the woman removing her footwear and hitting the driver multiple times, challenging him to continue recording.

In the video, the woman is heard on a phone call, alleging that the driver ran over her foot, abused her, and was now recording her. Later, the driver is seen speaking in Kannada to a bystander, seemingly explaining his version of the events.

Following the altercation, the auto-rickshaw driver filed a complaint, and the Bellandur Police have registered a case against the woman.
