If You See Something, Say Something:
Fighters ignore authority

On Oct. 8, on the Orange Line, two young girls were fighting. As someone tried to break them up, one pulled out a knife and tried to stab the other. She was arrested.

When the Metro Transit Police were taking her off the train, she tried to break-off from the police to fight again.

It seems more and more, people are fighting on Metro. But what really gets me is that even when they saw the Metro Transit Police, they still continued to fight.

The two girls fighting on the train might have been 14 or maybe 15 years old. Some people were recording from their cell phones.

Something seems to always go wrong with Metro.
