Calgary man charged with attempted robbery after video was posted to social media showing him allegedly attacking a woman on a CTrain platform near city hall.

Police say the woman was approached by an unknown man who grabbed her water bottle and splashed her face with it.

After a few seconds of shaking the woman and pushing her against the glass of the CTrain shelter, the man released her and fled the area.

The video shows more than a dozen other people standing on the platform watching the attack, but none of them appear to have physically intervened.
