Newly-released surveillance footage shows the moment a US bus driver and passenger opened fire on each other on a moving bus earlier this month.The shoot-out started after a passenger, identified as Omarri Shariff Tobias, got up while the bus was in motion and asked the driver to let him off between designated bus stops, according to a news release from Charlotte Area Transit System.
As Tobias crawled toward the back of the bus, where the two other passengers on board had moved, Fullard fired his gun again from the aisle of the bus. Both Fullard and Tobias are in stable condition and expected to recover, and the other two passengers were unharmed, the transit system said in a statement released Wednesday.Tobias was charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injuries, communicating threats, and carrying a concealed firearm, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said in a news release.
Fullard is still recovering from his injuries, his attorney told CNN, noting Fullard was "a dedicated employee and treasured his employment," who worked as a driver for more than 19 years.
