Riding public transportation in Philly is always fun. The liberal moron mayor says SEPTA is safe. They use taxpayer money to run advertising campaigns showing how wonderful it is to ride the rails. How about a commercial showing the reality of feral dogs robbing you, tasering you, and pushing you onto the tracks? This disintegrating, dangerous, bankrupt city is nothing but a bloated shitshow.
Investigators have received several tips in Sunday’s robbery of a man aboard the Market-Frankford Line who was later Tasered and tossed onto the tracks at the Millbourne station, a SEPTA official said Wednesday.
A video released by SEPTA shows a man and a woman snatching the victim’s bag while he was sleeping and then quickly leaving the train about 12:50 a.m. The victim awoke and chased the two onto the platform, where, after a brief struggle with the man, the woman Tasered the victim on the back. Then, she and her partner shoved him onto the tracks.
The disoriented man stumbled and tripped in the track area for several moments before climbing to safety. He used an emergency call box to signal for help. He was taken to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
The bag was recovered on the street near the station. SEPTA officials suspect the pair dumped it after taking what they wanted.
Transit police have received several tips and have a few leads but no arrests have been made, SEPTA spokeswoman Jerri Williams said.
