Rome, chaos on a train on the Rome-Lido: passenger smashes the glass of the cabin and injuring the driver – The Messenger

Aggression, shock and so much fear among the passengers on a train on the Roma-Lido in the Tor di Valle. A passenger waiting to get on the train, he launched a blunt object against the cockpit, sending shattered glass and wounding the guard in the service. The passengers were all made to descend from the train and the service was interrupted for almost an hour. Discomfort and anger among commuters. The woman was rescued from the 118 to the stop of the Pyramid for a facial trauma and was transported to the hospital San Camillo in code green.

According to the account of some witnesses, the man who attacked the driver would be “a passenger who is not able to climb at the Tor di Valle”.
“A young man, unable to get in for the crowd, hit the glass of the window of the cockpit – he tells a passenger – a splinter hit a young driver. It took the panic. The people, in view of the lack of information, have started to go down from a standstill, others remained on board. The driver emerged from the cabin, I decided to block the train”.
At that point among the commuters, who are forced every day to live an odyssey daily, is mounted to the anger: “we do Not want to get stuck”, shouted someone, “because we are always us in the middle”. The screams of anyone who asks to restart do not seem to convince, however, the driver who says that his coworker is wound, a shard of glass hit her on the face.
“But it was the driver – still tell th e passengers – that is output from the cockpit and said to his colleague “I can do it, let’s go, please. Not peggioriamo the situation”. And the train finally left.
upon arrival in Magliana, there were those who thanked the young drivers”.

Atac strongly condemns the incident. “Such violent behaviour, besides being intolerable, are a detriment to the service, and the public heritage, and then the citizens-users. The company also expresses solidarity to the worker who is injured while doing his work in the service of the community”.
