A 43-year-old woman was shoved onto CTA Blue Line tracks during a tussle on the train platform late Sunday in Austin.
She was on her phone when a man confronted her and began yelling, pulling her hair and punching her in the back before pushing her off the platform and onto the tracks at the Cicero stop, 720 S. Cicero Ave., about 11 p.m. Sunday, according to a police report.
At that point, bystanders began to yell at the man, and at least two other people with that man began to fight with the bystanders, the report said.
The woman suffered minor injuries, police said, and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in fair condition.
Robert Rhodes-Chambers, 44, of Maywood, was arrested at the scene and has been charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery. The other two males involved in the secondary incident were taken into custody on unrelated charges, police said.
