“I’ve taken about every train line in Chicago. The one I avoid is the Red cause I always hear terrible stories about the Red and things happening there. But the Orange Line? No, I’ve never had a problem, Pink Line, many others, yeah, but the Orange Line, I always felt safe.”

This incident happened just hours after a stabbing on a CTA Red Line train where a man suffered multiple stab wounds to the stomach, head and arms following an altercation.
