I am still amped over this. I can't even believe it happened. I haven't seen anything that ridiculous since jr high.
I was on BART going home and for once i was able to leave work early and not have to sit on the platform because of delays. So I'm listening to my new New Order remix CD in one of those seats by the door that are reserved for the elderly and handicapped. As we are arriving at the Lake Merritt station I see something out of the corner of my eye and all of a sudden there is a dude tackling a chick and he smashes her right on top of the little old filipino man sitting next to me. While he has her pinned down he is pulling her hair and swinging at her and she is scratching at him and kicking for her life.
I threw off my headphones and slid my iBook under my seat kicked the guy in the gut while sitting down and then jumped out of my seat. By this time there was another girl trying to get between the dude and the chick. I tried to get myself between them as well but the dude went after the chick without missing a beat. I started grabbing at the dude and i'm not sure if I punched him or not but I know I was saying to myself, "punch him punch him." All I know is my arms were swinging and then I got a hold of him from behind and put him in a choke hold. I pulled him back and I was pinned against one of the walls on the BART train holding him. He struggled a bit but I was able to hold on to him.
As this was going on I saw that the other girl was attacking the chick and then the chick started fumbling in her purse. While the guy was flopping around trying to shake me off the chick pulled out some mace or pepper spray and started spraying all over. My eyes and throat started to burn and I didn't even get any on me. It got so bad that I lost my grip on the dude and he went right after the chick again. She put the mace thing right in his eyes and gave him a full blast but by that time he was close enough to grab her and since he had momentum they both fell out of the train onto the platform. The dude was on tope of the chick and the other girl jumped on the pile and it was just an all out brawl. The dude was screaming from the spray but he had a grip on her and wasn't letting go.
I almost dove out to get him off of her but then i remembered that my laptop and backpack were still under my seat. I ran over there coughing like crazy and put my laptop in my bag. As I ran to the door of the train the operator closed them. Someone must have pressed the emergency button or something and let him know there was a fight on the train.
I sat there at the door and watched as the brawl between the dude and the two chicks migrated over to the bottom of the escalators. There were all these people on the platform and none of them jumped into the fight. Finally the chick was able to get away and she ran up the escalator. The dude tried to follow but you could tell he was really messed up from the spray.
We sat there at the station for like 10 minutes and the operator announced that there was an incident on one of the cars and we would be holding until the police released us. I'm assuming that the cops caught the dude upstairs because they let us go and didn't even question anyone in our car.
I swear if I would have been able to get out of the car I would have messed that guy up. Especially since he was pretty much blind from the spray. I was ready to rip his head off when I had him in that choke hold. If that chick hadn't of sprayed that stuff I would have been able to hold him and maybe put his lights out if I had been able to adjust my grip. I feel like I want to kick somebody's ass right now i'm so amped up.
