Original caption
Context: A man sitting next to me on the train randomly jumped up and attacked a stranger sitting a few seats down, accusing him of following him and killing his friends, trying to gouge his eyes out. After we pulled him off, he started arguing with a different man here. Not a fun time #mbta #boston
