That makes me sad. I understand how you must feel. You did what you could...sadly, I'm not sure what could be done, because they got on a bus. Not like police could identify a license place and follow-up. But hopefully something could be done. So sad.

That is the most upsetting thing ever!
I'm glad you called the police. I hope they will follow it up!

@Luvsmyfam I am so sorry that you had to be witness to this kind of abuse. You did your part, so MAYBE the police will follow up on your report.

Glad you reported it. Unfortunately the worst kind goes on behind closed doors.

@Luvsmyfam What makes you so sure they have not?

@Luvsmyfam @If she goes this far in public, imagine how far she'd go behind closed doors. Take a moment to think and write down some notes on what you saw in case your memory is needed later.
