ROXBURY, MASSACHUSETTS - The woman who was seen on camera shoving a 63-year-old off an MBTA bus in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood last month has agreed to a plea deal.
Luz Pineda, 32, was charged with one count of assault and battery on an elder or disabled person with injury. She initially pleaded not guilty at an earlier court hearing in Roxbury District Court.
On September 8, Pineda was on an MBTA bus in the area of Martin Luther King Boulevard and Warren Street in Roxbury. Prosecutors said Pineda got into an argument while trying to get off the crowded bus with a woman at the front. Pineda allegedly started screaming at the woman when she refused to move and then kicked her shopping cart off the bus. She then shoved the woman off the bus onto the sidewalk outside, prosecutors say.
