A Good Samaritan says he was assaulted after he tried to stop a racial tirade against two SkyTrain passengers.
The Good Samaritan, who asked to be identified as “Barney”, says he saw a man hurl racial insults at an Asian woman and her son at the Broadway-City Hall Canada Line station Saturday afternoon.
Barney said he was spat on and assaulted after following the man into the station. He said he suffered a minor cut and bruises.
He captured part of the incident on camera and a family member posted photos and video on Facebook.
Transit Police spokesperson Anne Drennan said they are investigating and have “a very good lead.” They are asking the man to “do the right thing and turn himself in.”
Police caution citizens to not put themselves in harm’s way, but Drennan but did commend Barney for stepping in “to make sure that this didn’t go any further.”

uh.... so theres a video of a guy verbally harassing a pedestrian whilst filming him, the threatened pedestrian, warns that if the guy continues he'll defend himself, the guy filming ignores the caution and continues, threatened individual keeps his word but restrains himself...
Pushing a asian lady with a kid and to top it off you slander her with racial slurs....GTFO you piece of shit.Hope you never run into me and call me names like that.I will put you in your place.
It's not just the fact it was a asian lady,you just don't do that to people in general....escpecially women.
we're taking the word of the guy filming the video because???
Someone confirmed on his Facebook post that a friend ran into this same guy before. Someone else also said he frequented a McDonalds by UBC and does the same racial tirade there

so... for no reason..
someone on youtube confirmed that he's the guy from the goonies movies...
Did the good Samaritan take video of that guy's assault against the Asian lady?
i believe he stepped in to try to talk to him first and took out the camera after to get an ID on him after it escalated.

no need to take his word, transit police are looking to ID him to do their investigation. they'll do their job and figure it out.
if he's done it before as comments on social media say then take it as a warning if you see this guy...maybe you're not asian so you don't have to worry since the instances commented on seem to be towards asians? i think there's 1 of them asians on RS...so i gotta warn gululu
Just pictured glow running out in a homemade batman suit looking for gulululu can't stop laughing...

You guys have to realize that people can say anything, until the police catch up with him none of you actually know what happened.
the video shows one side of a story. Not saying the guy didn't do what the guy is claiming he did, but as of yet nobody knows.

There's a bad habit in our culture of taking the first person who steps forwards version of something.
Like that story recently which showed an old man beating in the car windows of some guy. Turned out the guy had literally been sending death threats to the family of that man, and destroyed the neighbors house.

no, u guys reacting in anger are the idiots is the thing... ive seen it hundreds of times, and im sure you guys have to, but you're unwilling to admit it at this time because the topic hits close to home... you want to believe cuz the story got you mad, even though any reasonable person would realize there's 0 evidence and just hearsay from some social media comments
even the video doesn't show anything...
this is why vigilantes like that surrey creeper hunter need to stay at home and let the authorities and justice system deal with things, the average joe is just a dumbass that jumps on the hype train

that's like me picking a fight with you, starting a video mid-fight, and then skewing the audience of the video with a narrative i may have made up entirely

You've been a dense idiot before on a multitude of threads so he's just getting to the point.
Sure, we don't know both sides of the story yet. But when multiple groups of people have come out saying you're the POS who picked a fight with them too, then that would clearly sway opinion and judgement.
