An MTA bus driver faces several charges after police said he assaulted a teenager in Midwood.

It happened shortly after 9:30 p.m. on Monday near the intersection of Bay Parkway and East 2nd Street.

Police sources said 42-year-old Michael Brown, of Queens, was driving a city bus along the B6 route, when he got into an argument with a 16-year-old boy and then “punched him in the face multiple times.”

“A male cyclist was hanging onto a bus as it was being driven. The operator saw the cyclist in the mirror and stopped the bus. When the operator addressed the cyclist about the unsafe condition the situation escalated. The incident is still under investigation," said TA Surface vice president Gary Rosario in a statement.

“This matter remains under investigation. Preliminary reports indicate the cyclist was endangering passengers by engaging in reckless behavior before escalating the situation. All facts should be considered," said MTA communications director Tim Minton in a statement.

News 12 asked an MTA spokesperson if Brown is still employed by the MTA or placed on any sort of leave. On Tuesday afternoon, that spokesperson replied, “We do not have that information. When we do, we will get back to you.”

Brown faces several charges, including assault and reckless endangerment.

Police said the 16-year-old was taken to a hospital and is expected to be OK. He was not identified due to his age.
