A 44-year-old man has been arrested in the Putney Pusher case some nine years after a woman was shoved under a bus by a mystery jogger.
Police discovered a man threw a female pedestrian under a London double-decker vehicle on Putney Bridge in London.
The Putney Pusher incident was carried out on May 5, 2017, during rush hour at around 7.40am, when a 33-year-old woman was approached by a jogger from the opposite direction.
Despite there being room for the man to dodge the woman, he decided to shove her under a bus going at 12mph.
Thanks to the fast response of driver Oliver Salbris, the woman managed to survive and was largely unscathed while the jogger ploughed on his journey.
CCTV footage of the horrific incident triggered a manhunt for a suspect following the crime.
A suspect, who has been described as a multi-millionaire banker, has now been arrested at his £1.4million home in the capital.
Over the past decade, police have interviewed 50 men and arrested three suspects as they continue investigating the unsolved mystery.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "On Monday, June 15, a 44-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted grievous bodily harm.
"He was taken to police custody, where he remains.
"The arrest relates to an incident on May 5, 2017, where a woman was pushed into the path of a bus on Putney Bridge in Putney.
"Inquiries continue."
