A man described as “irate” was stabbed and a second person suffered cuts during an incident at the McKeesport bus station Saturday morning.
Port Authority Police charged Brayden Dixon, 21, of Indianapolis, Ind., with a felony count of aggravated assault, misdemeanor counts of simple assault, indecent exposure and open lewdness, and a summary charge of disorderly conduct.
A criminal complaint in the case was not yet available. Dixon had not been arraigned as of 4:30 p.m. Saturday, according to court records.
According to a Pittsburgh Regional Transit spokesperson, initial reports were that an irate person, identified as Dixon, approached a bus driver who was on their lunch break around 11:15 a.m.
Dixon took off his clothes and began fighting with bystanders, the spokesperson said.
During the fight, Dixon was stabbed in the chest and arm. He was taken to Forbes Regional Hospital by ambulance.
A second person suffered superficial cuts to their arm, the spokesperson said. After being treated at the scene and released, they were later taken to a local hospital.
The bus driver was not hurt.
