Excitement on the 151
So I’m on the bus on the way to Union Station, when we reach Randolph and Michigan…I’m sitting, quietly listening to PJ Harvey when I hear a scuffle from behind. Loud voices, angry voices. I pull off my headphones and turn to see some guy on the back stairs reaching toward a woman, the woman is angry, and a guy is shouting “That’s MY WALLET!” the woman shouts angrily at the man, the guy takes off down Michigan, the woman runs after, I turn and watch the guy run and start reaching for my cell phone (to what? call the police and report someone on the bus’s wallet has been stolen?) but I see a cop racing after the guy… the cop practically tackles the guy to the ground. They fight and the cop pushes the guy into a wall. Several cop cars and a “Paddy Wagon” pull up, more cops flood to the corner. and I see the guy with his hands behind his back, presumably he’s been cuffed. now there are about 5 cop cars at the intersection and 2 “paddy wagons” this can’t be all for this ONE guy who stole a wallet and possibly a purse…can it?
