Second Racially Motivated MBTA Assault Against Asian Woman in Boston in a Month, This Time at Broadway Station

Last week, on September 8, an Asian woman became the latest victim of a racially charged attack at Broadway Station. This disturbing event mirrors an incident from last month, when another woman was shot in the face with gel beads on the MBTA Red Line, as reported by Boston 25 News.

The assault, which took place at 1:15 PM, quickly escalated into a civil rights investigation as the assailant made racially motivated statements during the incident.

The MBTA Transit Police have released an ID Sought notice and urged the public to contact their Criminal Investigation Unit at 617-222-1050 with any information that could help identify the perpetrator.

Authorities have yet to reveal more details about the suspect or the nature of the racially charged statements made during the assault.
