Overview
- CCTV from May 2017 shows a jogger appearing to shove a 33‑year‑old woman into the path of a double‑decker bus on Putney Bridge and the victim escaped with minor injuries when the driver swerved.
- The Metropolitan Police arrested a 44‑year‑old man on suspicion of attempted grievous bodily harm on Monday, June 15, in relation to that 2017 incident.
- While in custody officers also detained the man on suspicion of possessing Class A and Class B drugs; police later bailed him pending further investigation into all offences.
- Media reports identify the suspect as a multi‑millionaire banker and former British Army officer with reported royal links, but the force has not named him and an arrest is not a charge.
- Detectives previously interviewed about 50 people and closed the probe in 2018 before new information led to this arrest, and the ongoing enquiries could lead to further questioning or charges as evidence is assessed.
