A recent video captures a hot altercation in the Bengaluru Metro, sending ripples of online reactions as more and more people raise growing concern over increasing aggression in public spaces. The footage captures a brawl between passengers : it becomes a quick escalation when fellow commuters step in to extend their efforts toward diminishment of the situation.
This evening, there was a violent incident on my @AmericanAir Flight AA 310 from Miami to Charlotte. Several men jumped to subdue another man in first class, who entered an altercation with the lady next to him.
The flight landed 26 minutes early, but we aren’t getting off soon. pic.twitter.com/FTlhRImc24
