LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Cellphone video showed a shirtless man on a rampage in the Mid-City area, throwing rocks at a bus and other vehicles.

At one point, he boarded the bus and the driver and passengers ran away.

One passenger was injured and taken to a hospital in stable condition.

Some of the riders detained the man until police arrived.

He's been identified as 32-year-old Emmanuel Moncada.

He was booked for assault with a deadly weapon and attempted carjacking.

He is due in court Thursday.
