Bus Driver Fired After Altercation Between Passenger

555 The Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) released on Friday, Feb. 22 surveillance video of a dispute between one of its bus drivers and a passenger. The exchange happened near 27th and Wisconsin Ave. on Monday, Jan. 14 -- and was captured by surveillance cameras on the bus. The incident eventually resulted in the firing of Shemurath Green, the bus driver. There was an altercation between Green and the passenger, including the exchanging of several profanities. Then it got physical. Green said the passenger reached around the driver's security shield and hit her in the face, then got off the bus. MCTS suspended Green on Jan. 14 -- and fired her on Jan. 18. Officials say Green then filed a grievance through her union in an attempt to get her job back. The grievance was denied on Feb. 21. MCTS says Green was employed by the transit system for 14 months.
