Videos What happens in a situation like this?

Entitled prick blocks a bus because she supposedly wasn't let on. A fire truck is behind - full lights blaring but refuses to move. No space for the truck to pass due to the congestion.

Would anything at all be able to be done? It's times like this that really piss and stress out firefighters, and I'm sorry people like this exist. Hopefully a big charge came her way, but nothing new as of yet as this happened yesterday I believe.

Someone should have forcefully moved her to the sidewalk. If a police officer has a problem with that, that police officer would have to be pretty uptight to charge the person who non violently moved her.

Police have no power in nyc. They show up and arrest her for doing this and the charges get dropped by the insane mega liberal DA and then she can sue the police and the city and win an easy few thousand. Police standby and a random community member puts hands on her she then sues the city and police officer for letting somebody put hands on her and win an easy few thousand. There’s no solution when anti social behavior and crime is actively promoted by city leaders.
