New York bus driver suffered from injuries after a man on the sidewalk through urine on her face. According to NBC 4 New York, the union representing transit workers claims the attack was part of a disturbing trend of attacks on bus operators.

Trellis Robinson, 43, MTA bus driver said, “It literally went all in my face my hair, it dripped all down the left side of my body, it went inside my shirt. All around my neck,”

Robinson was taken to a nearby hospital, police said. She had redness around her eyes and felt pain and nausea.

Robinson was driving her route last Friday and was stopped at 138th Street and Grand Concourse when the man on the sidewalk threw a liquid in her face, police said.

“I made the right turn to load up my passengers, as they loaded I close the door and I as I proceeded to turn my head to look in the mirror to pull out of the bus stop he was at my window,” Robinson said.

“These senseless attacks are disgusting and disgraceful,” NYC Transit President Andy Byford said. “I’ve asked NYPD to step up patrols in response to the subway incident in addition to our prior request to increase police presence on buses, and we will do whatever we can to help NYPD identify the perpetrator or perpetrators including sharing any video surveillance that may exist.”

No one has been arrested yet but a investigation is ongoing.
