as posted here

A 17-YEAR-OLD Langford youth has appeared in Armadale Children's Court today after being charged over the attack which left a Perth bus driver blind in one eye.

Bus driver Gerard Sin was allegedly attacked by a group of youths who were refused permission to get on the vehicle in Armadale.

The Transperth bus was travelling along Church Avenue, Armadale, and as it approached the intersection of Sixth Road a group of youths slapped on the bus to gain the driver’s attention.

Police alleged that when the bus driver opened the door, he was struck with a piece of concrete and kicked, sustaining severe injuries to his face and eye.

The teenager , who cannot be identified because he is a juvenile, was charged with causing unlawful grievous bodily harm and $2000 worth of damage to a bus.

He was not required to plead to the charges and was released on bail to seek legal advice before his next court appearance on August 24.
