Police are appealing for information after footage of a man clinging onto the back of a bus with a knife went viral.
The clip, taken in Brighton, shows a man holding on to the back of a moving bus while clutching a large knife.
The man appeared to be lifting himself up to peer in the back of the bus on a few occasions, before hitting the back of the bus with his weapon.
Sussex Police have said they are working with Brighton and Hove Buses to find out further information about the man in the video.
In a statement, a spokesperson for Sussex Police said: ‘We are urging anyone who witnessed this incident, has video evidence, or recognizes the person in question to come forward immediately.
‘We are aware of a video circulating on social media which appears to show a person holding onto the back of a moving bus in Brighton, in possession of a knife.
‘We are liaising with Brighton and Hove Buses as we seek to identify the person involved, and to assist with the ongoing investigation.’
In May, a teenager was spotted hitching a ride on the back of a double-decker bus in west London.
The teen decided to surf on the back of a bus on Lansbury Drive in Hayes, west London.
He grabbed hold of the back of the number 90 bus as it whizzed along the 30mph residential road.
A video shows him desperately clinging on, but he kept slipping. The boy eventually lost his grip, but he managed to remain upright as he landed on the ground.
