A Cleveland, Ohio, bus driver dealt quite the blow to a woman who apparently had been taunting him during a ride, delivering an uppercut punch directly to her jaw.

The Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is currently investigating the fight between a male bus driver and a female passenger after a video of the driver throwing an uppercut and tossing the woman off his bus, Fox 8 Cleveland reports.

The video, recorded by a fellow passenger, was posted on WorldStarHipHop.com and YouTube and began going viral on Reddit before it gained national attention.

It is unclear what the two first began fighting over, but the female can be heard threatening to fight the driver. The driver then says he will get his daughter and granddaughter to come down and deal with the 25-year-old woman, who then tells him to bring along his "mammy," the International Business Times notes.The woman approaches the bus driver, and the driver rises from his seat and hits the young woman before throwing her off the bus.

"She want to be a man, I'm gonna treat you like a man," the driver announces to the screaming crowd.

RTA officials are unsure when the uppercut incident occurred, but they believe it happened on Sept. 18, according to The Smoking Gun.

WKYC obtained a full statement from the RTA. It reads:

“We also saw the video today. Upon review, the driver was removed from dutyand suspended. We are investigating," RTA representative Mary Shaffer told The Cleveland Leader.
