kill, you know, someone, but it just happened to be my son. it s about 12:15 in the morning when 20-year-old duane taylor, a lab technician from the university of pennsylvania, boards the broad septa train line in philadelphia to head home after a day s work. he dozes off listening to his ipod as the train heads north. next to him, a man is standing with his son. the little boy is told to sit down. then for no apparent reason, the father pulls a double claw hammer from his bag, turns to taylor and viciously attacks him. the victim did not know this man. it was a random attack. he was asleep on the subway. you don t know what kind of pain i m in. the assault lasts for five long minutes. the other passengers, about ten of them, either leave the train or just watch. amazingly, none of them try to
hammer from his bag, turns to taylor and viciously attacks him. the victim did not know this man. it was a random attack. he was asleep on the subway. you don t know what kind of pain i m in. the assault lasts for five long minutes. the other passengers, about ten of them, either leave the train or just watch. amazingly, none of them try to help. there was certainly an element of fear. there s a fear of retaliation, a there s a fear of becoming another victim during the incident. there s a fear of being involved in the legal system. it is a pretty sad state of affairs when someone is attacked that viciously and absolutely no one attempts to help. there were a couple of men on the train. you can see from the video. these are large men. in fact, the victim dropped his cell phone during the course of the attack and one individual actually picked up the cell phone and put it in his pocket. the train stops but the attack continues.
the suspect pulls taylor on to the platform. he then flees the scene with the young boy. a rider eventually pulls the emergency switch to alert a train operator and a woman who did not witness the attack helps taylor get to the local hospital. i ran behind him, like this, you all right? he said, yeah, i m all right. he was holding his face. i asked him, well, you want to go to the hospital? he said, yeah. she helped me out and took me to the hospital. we talk to each other every day now, make sure we re both okay. she s a good person. taylor is treated for a broken finger and cuts to his head and neck. i got staples right here and right here. broken finger. about six stitches in the back of my neck. several stitches, broken fingers. but i don t know what kind of psychological impact this could have obviously. you re riding home from work, asleep on a subway, and then all of a sudden, a man attacks you with a hammer. he s fortunate that those are the extent of his injuries.
