As the bus pulls up to a stop, the elderly man passes by the woman in the aisle. He can be seen in the video first struggling to free his foldable cart from where he had stashed it between two seats. The elderly man can be seen sitting in front of the woman on the bus. He appears in the video to be watching the woman while she speaks and readying himself to get off the bus as his stop approaches.
Following the exchange, the man turns to exit the bus. It is at this point that the surveillance footage switches to show a view from behind the man as he starts towards the open bus doors. The woman can be seen using both her hands to shove the man out the doors. The force of her push causes the man to land on the sidewalk out front of the bus where he lays motionless.
