Share and Follow

A massive altercation took place on Chicago’s Red Line subway, which has recently seen several alarming incidents and is now considered one of the nation’s most perilous.

Earlier this week, a video surfaced online depicting a group of women fighting on the infamous line near the 47th Street Station in the Democrat-led city on June 22.

In the horrifying clip, fellow passengers can be seen running away from the violence, as some can be heard calling out: ‘No!’, and ‘break it up’.

A man can be seen in the middle of the brawl as the women throw punches at each other, at one point he kicks one of the women away. 

While someone appears to attempt breaking up the fight, other passengers can be observed recording the incident and encouraging the participants. Chicago PD reported they couldn’t find any records of the altercation.

Officers did say that on the same day and on the same train a 65-year-old man was involved in a fight with three unknown males, he was rushed to hospital. 

The new footage comes only two weeks after a Chicago police officer was attacking by subway riders while patrolling a station, also on the Red Line. 

The unidentified officer was standing on the 69th subway station, also on the Red Line, when three riders screamed at him before the confrontation turned violent.

One of the men swung at the officer, who managed to duck, but was knocked off his feet after taking a punch to the ribcage. 

He was able to get up, but was immediately surrounded by the three men who swung at him multiple times.

The officer was hit again and was struck so hard he fell against the stopped Red Line subway before hitting the concrete.

One of the officers managed to slip to safety while his comrades kept his attackers at bay until they walked away.

Other videos also emerged showed K9 units and their officers being attacked on the platform.

Just last week cops in the city issued a warning for those traveling on the Red Line after an armed robbery on a platform in the city’s North Side. 

It happened on an escalator on July 12 just before midday inside the CTA Red Line-Clybourn Station.

They released images of four people wanted in connection with the robbery, who they said hit a man in the face and demanded his wallet.

One of the suspects is said to have pulled out a gun when the victim attempted to recover his wallet. 

On July 2nd, a shooting on the Red Line during in the early hours of the morning left a man critically injured.

Police said a 29-year-old man got into a fight with another passenger when they pulled a gun and shot him in the thigh and buttocks. 

The suspected shooter fled the scene on another train, Chicago Police confirmed on Friday that no suspect has been taken into custody and they are still investigating.

In early May, police said they were looking for 14 suspects who allegedly beat and robbed a couple on the line. 

Cops said the mob of 14, a mixture of young men and women, pulled a knife on them and used pepper spray during the incident. 

Other clips have also emerged on social media showing frequent brawls on trains and platforms on the Red Line. 

Police figures show that crime is up 42 percent over a four-year period in the city, although it is down 14 percent compared to 2024 between January and June. 

A study by the Illinois Policy found that the Green Line was the worst in the city, with the Red Line closely following in second place. 

Police data said that those riding the Red Line were the second-most likely to be a victim of a crime, with 1.7 out of every 100,000 rides ending in a crime. 

Citywide, about 1.3 out of every 100,000 rides starting at a CTA station or platform ended in a crime. 

The most common crime was battery. Second was deceptive practices, such as bait-and-switch schemes or counterfeiting.
