(CBS) A video posted on Facebook is generating hundreds of responses, and it shows at least two young men on a CTA Blue Line train, slapping an older man and taunting him.
WBBMs Steve Miller has spoken with one of those young men about why he did it.
The video goes on for more than two minutes. It shows at least two young men, both African American, slapping an older man on top of his head.
And then they appear to tease him.
Its been shared dozens of times on Facebook, but originally was posted by a young man who says he shot the video and was apparently part of the group that mistreated the older man.
WBBM emailed the young videographer, and he called back.

Talk about a viral internet phenomena. Even the acronym EBM is widely recognized now. lol
Paul Kersey, please pick up the courtesy phone.
You posted a link at #12, I clicked it and got the message that I had to “sign in” to confirm my age.
If you ride public transportation while white, this is what you get. And no one gives a sh..... The day will come when some racist gentle giants will be shot on a bus or train.
It’s just a Youtube video. I’ve never seen such a thing there so I don’t know what to say about that.
We don’t seem to have many of these incidents here in the South. Perhaps because about 5% of the adult population has concealed carry licenses.
