A bus passenger was injured following an attack last week in Angel Edmonton

A man has appeared in court charged with offences aboard a bus in Angel Edmonton last week.

Hervin Campbell, of Copperfield Drive in Tottenham, was charged with Section 18 GBH, affray and possession of a pointed/bladed article.

He appeared at Highbury Corner Magistrates court last Friday (5th) where he was remanded in custody to appear at Wood Green Crown Court on Wednesday, 8th May.

This follows an allegation of a woman having been threatened by a man aboard a bus on Cuthbert Road on Wednesday (3rd) and a second man suffering a knife injury. His injury was not life threatening.
