A London bus driver was sacked after he chased down and knocked out a man who stole a passenger’s necklace. On June 25 2024, Mr Hehir was driving the 206 bus, which runs between Wembley and Maida Vale in north-west London. A tribunal heard that a man boarded the bus before snatching a necklace from a female passenger from around her neck and running off. The day after the incident, Mr Hehir was suspended from duty and instructed to attend an internal investigation. She found all allegations proven and decided that Mr Hehir should be dismissed without notice for gross misconduct.
