Man in UK hijacks bus after assaulting Sikh driver, pulling his beard

A man assaulted a Sikh bus driver, seized control of his single-decker bus and drove it into multiple vehicles in the UK's Telford, on Friday evening, prompting the deployment of armed police, as reported by the BBC.

Videos circulating on social media show the man attacking the driver inside the Travel Telford bus before taking control of the vehicle. The footage captures passengers screaming at the man to stop and urging people to get out of the way.

The video shows the driver repeatedly asking for a telephone and pleading with passengers to call the police. One woman can be heard telling the attacker to leave the driver alone, while another passenger also urges him to stop.
