The search for a woman who violently attacked a 70-year-old woman aboard a Broward County Transit bus in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida, last month is still on, and the Broward County Sheriff’s Office released a video of the incident, offering a large reward.
Footage from the Broward County Sheriff’s Office shows the horrific attack that occurred on October 21.
The unidentified older woman, who was sitting, asked the black female suspect, who was standing, for some space after the suspect bumped into her several times.
The attacker, who looks three or four times the size of the other woman, can then be seen intentionally body slamming the victim and getting in her face before hitting her in the head with a grocery bag. The suspect then jumped on top of the elderly woman and began punching her as the woman tried to fend her off with a cane.
Bystanders eventually intervened and pulled the crazed, entitled woman away from the 70-year-old lady.
WATCH:
Broward Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Carey Codd described the attack as “repulsive,” adding that “fortunately, the victim did not suffer any major injuries.”
“This is something that should never happen; it should not happen in any type of civilized society. What this woman did is absolutely unacceptable,” Codd said, according to CBS.
The attacker and another woman who was with her fled the scene, police say.
The Broward County Sheriff’s Office issued the following press release on Thursday, seeking information on the suspect and offering a $5,000 reward:
