A 31-year-old male bus driver was traveling east in the 1400-block of West Chicago Avenue about 11:20 p.m. when he told a 39-year-old female passenger she had dropped several items on the floor after getting on the bus, CPD said.
The woman became irate and began swearing at the bus driver and tried to reach around the glass and grab the driver while the bus was still moving, according to Chicago police.
