Nicola Hustleby is a regular on a bench on South Avenue where she waits each morning to take the bus for breakfast. "I was just sitting there drinking coffee, smoking a cigarette, and bam! All of a sudden, I was just jolted down and thrown on the street," she recalled Tuesday. Hustleby said it happened so fast, she didn't see the arm of the City of Rochester garbage truck picking up the bench. But she felt it when it threw her off. "I could walk. At least I didn't need a hospital," she said.
