LAS VEGAS, NV (KXNT) - Metro Police are asking for the public's help to find a woman they say has been randomly attacking passengers on city buses.

According to Metro, the woman is beating the passengers up without any provocation beforehand. A snapshop from a CAT bus camera was released by Metro with a pretty clear shot of the woman suspected in the attacks.

Anyone with information was urged to call (702) 828-4813 or email J6412R@LVMPD.com with information. Callers may also reach out to CrimeStoppers anonymously at (702) 385-5555. Reports can be made online at www.crimestoppersofnv.com

This marks the latest incident of violence involving passengers on Citizens Area Transit buses. 

Last March, a woman pushed an elderly man off a bus after the two exchanged words. The man died from his injuries a few weeks later.

More recently, a man was arrested after video was released showing him punching an elderly man in the face after he was told to take his feet off of the elderly man's lap. The older man lost an eye due to the attack.
