A man was brutally attacked by a group of teenagers after he allegedly asked them to stop smoking weed on a train. The mob viciously beat victim Kennan Jones after he complained about the group reportedly using drugs on the public transport vehicle. Mr Jones said that he remembered being confronted by one of the females after making the request.
He said to NBC News: “”When they started smoking I’m like, ‘Come on, man. We’re on a train. Can y’all just wait? Just wait’.”She ended up spitting in my face.
“”I was like, ‘You lucky I don’t hit females, little girl, because I would beat your a** for that. And that’s when everything went from zero to 100.”The video shows the group kicking and punching Mr Jones, while he tried desperately to defend himself.
He was also reportedly hit in the head with a skateboard while on board the Dallas Area Rapid Transport (DART) train on Sunday night.
As the train stopped at the next station, the attack spilled out onto the platform at Deep Ellum station in Dallas, Texas. He was later taken to hospital for treatment.
Initially, officers did little to pursue the incident because there was no CCTV footage from inside the train.
Since the video appeared on Facebook earlier this week, DART authorities are now reviewing it.
An investigation into the incident is ongoing as police attempt to identify the individuals in the video footage.
