First time tonight seeing Kangaroo Bus Lines on the Gabba shuttles, they appeared to be doing City and Eight Mile Plains shuttles. Thompsons also returned to do the Chermside shuttles once again.

Its is the first time for bus drivers had been assaulted in year 2017 for Surfside, It was #645 at ashmore at 11pm last night on a 740 surfers bound runs, A 16 years old had been charged.
Police have charged a boy following investigations into the assault of a bus driver in Benowa last night.

Around 11pm, a boy boarded the bus at Nerang which was travelling towards Surfers Paradise.

It will be alleged once on board, the boy sat at the back of the bus and later began yelling at the 36-year-old driver, punched him to the face and attempted to steal the cash tin.

It will further be alleged he alighted from the bus at the intersection of Ross Street and Ashmore Road however, then boarded the bus again and attempted to assault the driver once more.

Another passenger assisted the driver to remove the boy from the bus as police arrived.

A 16-year-old boy has been charged with attempted robbery with violence and will be dealt with under the provisions of the Youth Justice Act.
