The Las Vegas metropolitan police released the video showing the chilling moment when a woman pushes a 74-year-old man from a city bus. The man passed away and the 25-year-old woman is now facing murder charges.

In the 36-second clip, which was recorded on March 21 by the security camera of the municipal vehicle, Serge Fournier is seen walking down the aisle with a shopping cart in hand. The man exchanges a few words with the suspect, named Cadesha Bishop, who a few seconds later pushes him "with both hands" causing him to fall.

The clip shows how the old man does not even touch the steps in his fall of more than 8 feet in height and 'flies' towards the pavement where he is lying together with his cart before the amazement and outrage of two passengers who observe the moment.

The passengers told police that the woman was arguing and saying high-sounding words and that when Fournier was getting off the bus he told her to be "kinder" to the rest of the passengers, which apparently caused the fury of the accused.

Witnesses told police that after the incident, Bishop, who was traveling accompanied by his son, leaves the bus ignoring the old man and leaves the place without offering help. This revelation has served as an argument for the police to formally accuse the woman of homicide when the old man died of his injuries on April 23.

Police who rushed to the scene found the man bleeding. Fournier was admitted to a hospice, where he died on April 23 from blows to the side, the Clark County coroner's office confirms. The bus security video was key to identifying the woman.

"[She] is too violent," the boy's father told detectives in charge of the case who spoke to him on the Friday before the arrest. The man assured that due to the explosive temperament of the woman they no longer lived together. That same day, the woman was summoned to testify but did not appear, causing an arrest warrant to be issued against her.

Bishop had a prior criminal record and was booked on Monday at the Clark County Jail on charges of manslaughter of a senior citizen. Her bail was set at $ 100,000 while she awaits a preliminary court hearing dated May 21.
