Staff on Belfast's Glider system have been attacked for the fourth time this week.
On Saturday, May 6, two members of staff were assaulted at a bus stop in the Lanyon Place area of Belfast. One was punched in the face, while the second was kicked to the side of the head.
This is the fourth attack in the space of a week and comes after a £1,000 reward was offered for help catching assailants following three the previous incidents.

Police said the incident on Saturday was an "unprovoked attack on two staff members who were simply doing their job".
A PSNI spokesman said: "It was reported that two male members of staff had been assaulted by another man around 4.15pm.
"One of the victims was punched in the face, while the second was kicked to the side of the head. There have been no reports of any serious injuries at this time. This is an unprovoked attack on two staff members who were simply doing their job.
"Enquiries are continuing and anyone with any information or footage that could assist with the investigation is urged to contact police on 101 quoting reference number 1300 of 06/05/23."
It comes after a CRPO was punched in the face as he stood at the bus stop on the Falls Road earlier in the week. Just hours before this a Glider CRPO had to attend hospital after he was assaulted on board a Glider at the Beechview Park area.
Police in West Belfast also charged a woman with multiple offences after an incident on Monday. Officers were called to reports of an assault on a Glider inspector in the Glengoland Avenue of Dunmurry on May 1. She was charged with "assault occasioning actual bodily harm, assault on police, disorderly behaviour, and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place".
