Woman who abused student on bus charged with offensive language Police have charged a woman for offensive language after she allegedly abused a student on a bus in Sydney. A WOMAN who allegedly abused a schoolchild on a Sydney bus has been identified and charged with offensive language. The 55-year-old from Balmain was filmed by a passenger talking to the male school student on a bus at Burwood earlier this year. The footage was uploaded on YouTube. A male school student boarded a bus at the intersection of Burwood Road and Railway Parade, and placed some items on a seat on April 17. The woman who boarded the bus at the same time, allegedly verbally abused the boy using offensive language and racial undertones with the comments continuing until she got off the bus at Balmain. She has been ordered to appear at Burwood Local Court on August 6. This type of (alleged) racial abuse, especially where young children are involved, is completely deplorable and will not be tolerated.
