“It happened around noon-hour on Friday at Front and Jarvis,” TTC spokesperson Stuart Green confirmed.

“The passenger wanted to get off while the bus was in the left turn lane. The operator advised they’d be let off after the bus turned and was able to stop at the curb. The person broke through door after the bus turned and was stopped and fled south on Jarvis. The bus had to be taken out of service.”

Patience, in this case, wasn’t a virtue.
