A suspect has been arrested for the violent assault of a woman as she rode the SkyTrain last Saturday from Waterfront Station in Vancouver.
Transit police say a man approached the woman and yelled that she was the person who was making his daughter sick before he punched her several times.
Vancouver police responded to a call yesterday from someone who said they recognized the man in photos distributed by transit police.
A 51 year old man of no-fixed address has been arrested and charges of charges of assault, theft and mischief have been recommended.
