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 Robert Rhodes-Chambers 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 Rhodes-Chambers, and at least two other people with him began to fight with the bystanders, the report said.
The 43-year-old woman suffered minor injuries, police said, and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in fair condition.
Rhodes-Chambers was arrested at the scene, while the other two males involved in the secondary incident were placed into custody on unrelated charges, police said.
