Overview

• A Coniferal Line 11 bus in Nueva Córdoba was damaged when a rider wielded the onboard emergency hammer and broke several side windows and the central door.
• The dispute began on Boulevard Illia 600 after the driver refused a cash fare under the city’s electronic-only payment rules.
• Officers arrived within minutes, the man climbed out through a shattered window and surrendered, and he was placed at the disposal of judicial authorities.
• No passengers or the driver were injured, while the detainee was treated for cuts to his hands sustained while striking the glass.
• Coniferal removed the unit from service for repairs, will provide camera footage to investigators, and plans to file a formal complaint.
