Richmond Police detectives are asking for the public’s help to identify the individual in the attached photos who brandished a firearm at a driver of a GRTC bus last week.
At approximately 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, July 17, the man in the photos was asked to leave a GRTC bus for violating their policy. The bus was stopped at the intersection of West Broad and Foushee streets while the man in the photos refused to leave the bus. After several minutes the man complied, left the bus and removed his bicycle from the front bus rack. He then brandished a handgun and pointed it at the driver. He then left the scene on the bicycle. There were no injuries.
The bicycle is black in color, possibly Trek or Giant brand.
Anyone with information about the identity of this person is asked to call Fourth Precinct Detective P. Bruington at (804) 646-6619 or contact Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000. The P3 Tips Crime Stoppers app for smartphones may also be used. All Crime Stoppers methods are anonymous.
