Police say a man forced his way into the station and assaulted a TTC employee after being told buses were no longer running. The suspect is described as a man between 35 to 40 years old, about five feet 11 inches tall with a medium to heavy build, a dark moustache and eye glasses. He was last seen in a dark blue jacket, faded blue jeans, white "Puma" shoes, a yellow baseball hat and carrying a maroon gym bag.
The attack comes as the TTC deals with a recent wave of violence against passengers and staff, prompting the transit authority to deploy additional employees to move throughout the system each day.
