Trouble on the bus - over reaction?

I witnessed quite an aggressive confrontation on the bus home today. 

A lad got on, sat down and a older male was looking over in that direction, I think personally he was just looking in that direction out the window but the lad who got on took offence. 

He stood up and shouted it’s illegal to stare at people. Was waving his hands and shouting. 

Felt sorry for the man who looked embarrassed. 

I thought the lad over reacted. Plus I don’t remember any law stating it’s illegal to stare at someone.

    Quite possibly. Hard to tell. I just felt awful for the man who was receiving all the abuse.
