Woman avoids serious accident with London bus
A pedestrian narrowly avoided being hit by an oncoming bus after being 'pushed' by a jogger on London Bridge. Warning: Vision may disturb some viewers.
Dramatic CCTV footage released by Metropolitan Police today shows the jogger approaching the woman from the opposite direction, as buses and trucks drive past.
The pair collide, with the man appearing to shove the woman sideways towards the road.
She falls backwards towards the gutter, causing an approaching double-decker bus to swerve to avoid her.
Vision from a passing vehicle shows the man continues to run away without looking back.
In a statement, Metropolitan Police said the woman was knocked "over into the road and into the path of an oncoming bus", which "narrowly missed" hitting her.
"The bus stopped and some passengers got off and rushed to the victim's aid. She received minor injuries from the incident," the statement said.
"About 15 minutes later the jogger came back the other way across the bridge. The victim tried to speak to him but he did not acknowledge her and carried on jogging."
Police urged anyone who recognises the man - described as being caucasian, aged early to mid 30s, with brown eyes and short brown hair - to contact them. At the time of the incident, he was wearing a grey t-shirt and dark blue shorts.
Sergeant Mat Knowles, the investigating officer, said the woman had been placed in "extreme danger".
"The victim was put in extreme danger when she was knocked into the road. It was only due to the superb quick reactions of the bus driver that she was not hit by the vehicle," Sergeant Knowles said.
"We are keen to speak to the jogger in the CCTV about what happened that morning. We would urge him or anyone who recognises him to get in touch with us as soon as possible."
