A man accused of fatally hitting a 70-year-old nurse in the head in an unprovoked attack at a Downtown LA bus stop in 2022 was ordered Tuesday to stand trial on murder and assault charges.
The judge said he viewed what had happened to Shells as a “coldcock,” not a slap to the head as characterized by the defense attorney. “She had no idea what was coming,” Ohta said.Sign up for NBC LA newsletters.
When Deputy District Attorney Brian Kang asked if it appeared that Shell's life was in danger, the first witness called by the prosecution said, “Yes. Because I saw her falling, hitting her head … She was on the floor motionless, bleeding from her head.” Dr. John Gruen, a neurosurgeon at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center who testified that he frequently rode a shuttle bus from Union Station to the hospital with the nurse, said he operated that day on Shells in an effort to save her life.
