Homeless Man Punches Pregnant Woman On Philadelphia Bus

A homeless man punched a pregnant woman in the stomach as she refused to give up her bus seat for him on a Philadelphia bus, police said. The woman, in her third trimester, was sitting front and center when a suspected vagrant approached the vehicle. He told her he needed a seat, but she was unmoved. The suspect then punched the woman before fleeing from SEPTA’s Route 22 bus as it pulled away from Girard Avenue around 8:40 p.m. Tuesday, police said.
