Police are looking for a security guard who allegedly punched a 77-year-old woman aboard a Manhattan subway train last month, all because the senior attempted to sit next to her.

According to police sources, the assault occurred at around 3:25 p.m. on April 18 aboard a Southbound D train. The train was at the Broadway-Lafayette Subway Station when the senior attempted to sit next to a woman.

“You can’t sit here, it’s too hot,” the suspect allegedly said before elbowing the victim, the sources said. The perpetrator then punched the 77-year-old woman in the face.

While the perpetrator fled the train, the septuagenarian suffered pain to her face and swelling. She was treated on the scene by EMS.

The suspect was last seen wearing a black uniform with the words “Arrow Security” on the sleeve, and black boots.

Right again!

Easy Peasy.

Not as if it likely was the 77yo lady’s first choice of a seat.

Or maybe the 77-year-old lady wasn’t wearing a bra and made it too hot?

It’s a commuter train. Crowding is expected.

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance, including public transportation. This ensures that transit providers (buses, subways, rail) do not provide discriminatory services, and it allows for filing complaints if rights are violated.

Before the 1964 Act, many states utilized “separate but equal” laws, allowing drivers to segregate passengers by race. The 1964 act and corresponding Title VI regulations eliminated these practices, covering both public transportation services and terminals.

Does she remember Rosa Parks sat down in the bus section prohibited to black people and it sparked Dr. Martin Luther King’s Montgomery bus boycott?

Gif of Nicolas Cage....

Remember, in another role in Mandy (2018) he picked up his chain saw and fought the villain in a chain saw fight. His patience didn’t run unendingly.
