VIDEO: Bus Driver Allegedly Pulls Gun on Passenger During Dispute
Video circulating from Saturday’s incident shows a confrontation involving a bus and several people along a roadway, amid allegations that the driver brandished a firearm at a passenger.

A dispute involving a bus driver and a passenger reportedly took a frightening turn on Saturday after the driver was accused of pulling a gun during the confrontation.
Video footage obtained by Antigua.News captures part of the incident, showing a bus stopped along a roadway as several people are seen in the immediate area. The person recording the video appears to be observing the confrontation from some distance away.
According to information accompanying the footage, the confrontation involved the driver of the bus and a passenger, with allegations that the driver produced a firearm during the dispute.
The video itself does not provide a sufficiently clear view to independently confirm that the object allegedly displayed was a firearm or establish exactly what led to the confrontation.
It is also unclear whether anyone was injured or whether a report was subsequently made to police.
Antigua.News has not independently confirmed the identities of those involved or the circumstances that reportedly triggered the dispute.
The incident has nevertheless raised concern, particularly given the allegation that a firearm may have been introduced into what began as a disagreement involving a public transportation operator and a passenger.
Further details will be provided as they become available.

If he is doing that he should be a licensed carrier and ANY situation that presents itself as a threat to him or/and passengers he is allowed to brandish his firearm, if further danger incites he may use it for his and the protection of others.

So why report on something that cannot be independently verified. Chups. The person that take the damn video need two slap. Poor effort

If the bus driver firearm is licensed, his license should be revoked indefinitely. He handled the situation wrong out of anger. He should have called the police. Let the police remove the disgruntled passenger(s).

Hmmm extremely concerning, especially when public transportation is involved. Disagreements can happen, but allegedly introducing a firearm into a confrontation takes the situation to a dangerous level. I hope the matter is thoroughly investigated and appropriate action is taken based on the facts.
