An altercation on a METRO bus ended with a woman being shocked by a Taser.

It happened around 5pm near Mesa and Tidwell in northeast Houston. METRO bus marshals on one bus spotted a woman assaulting another woman on a different bus across the street. They entered the bus to attempt to stop the attack.

The 29-year-old woman accused in the attack was shocked at least once and arrested. After she was placed in a squad car, she reportedly tried to kick out the windows. Authorities then hogtied the woman.

Paramedics were called to the scene to examine both the victim of the attack and the suspect. Neither woman was taken to a hospital for further treatment.

The suspect will be charged with assault.
