Thankfully, the rider only got hit on his right leg.

According to the victim, the jeepney stopped to pick up passengers even though the traffic light was green.

What made him speak up was when the driver of the jeep decided to stop at a pedestrian lane, blocking passengers amid the rain.

"'Dun ko siya sinita sa kanyang pagmamaneho at sinabing, 'pagka may pedestrian lane, padaanin mo 'yung mga tao lalo na't kita mong walang payong at maulan. Eh, kailangan, unahin mo muna sila, respeto na lang," said the victim.

But instead of accepting his mistake, according to the victim, the jeeoney driver allegedly talked back and said he was only trying to make a living.

The victim even said the suspect challenged him to a fist fight.

The jeepney driver was immediately located and surrendered to the police. He was charged with attempted homicide and malicious mischief.
