An Asian man is facing backlash after he was captured on video fighting with a Black man on the Los Angeles Metro Blue Line earlier this month. The video, uploaded to Instagram, begins with the Black man punching the Asian passenger.
“Get the f**k off, stupid ass. I’ve been pepper sprayed before,” the Black man said at the beginning of the clip. “You think I give a f**k about that stupid-ass s**t? That’s too weak. I will f**k your ass up.”
The clip then shows the Asian man chasing the Black passenger down the railway platform during a stop.
“Come here. You a dead n***a,” the Asian man can be heard saying as he chases the passenger.
After he reentered the train, the Asian man was thrown down by another passenger.
“What the f**k is your problem, b***h?” the second man yelled as he threw down the Asian man.
Edgar Nuñez, a Los Angeles resident who operates the Instagram account @peopleofmetrola, recorded the video, NextShark reports.
“I don’t know exactly how it started, but at 3:02p while the blue line was en route to Slauson station, an Asian male was making threats to an African American male,” Nuñez wrote on Instagram. “Only the cameras will know how it started.”
