San Mateo County Transit Police investigators are following leads, including reports of a white compact car
That's it ... the color of the car?

That's it ... the color of the car?

Of course. It was white.

Wait! There's more! It's a compact!

Hmmmm. Nine to fifteen assailants.

Check with PT Barnum, can they account for all their klown kars?

It must be a TARDIS, because no normal white compact car can house 9-15 people (none of whom apparently possessed a single distinguishing physical characteristic).

Well then, with 9 to 15 attackers, that settles it: clowns. Only clowns wil lfit 9-15 in a small compact car. So it was clowns gone wild.

What caught my attention is that there were between 9 and 15 attackers and one compact car? Are they clowns??

On a serious note - Redwood City is a very nice area. Scary that this happened there. I used to take the train to PacBell Park by myself and never felt uncomfortable. However, I never took it from the station closest to my house as it was dark and scary. I used to go one station south to San Bruno. More people and better lighting.
