| Woman raped on train as bystanders did nothing, police say | |
| 2021-10-17 | |
| [FoxNews] A woman was raped by a stranger on a commuter train in suburban Philadelphia in the presence of other riders who a police official said "should have done something." Superintendent Timothy Bernhardt of the Upper Darby Police Department said officers were called to the 69th Street terminal around 10 p.m. Wednesday after the assault on the westbound train on the Market-Frankford Line. An employee of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority who was in the vicinity as the train went past called police to report that "something wasn’t right" with a woman aboard the train, Bernhardt said. SEPTA police waiting at the next stop found the woman and arrested a man. The woman was taken to a hospital. The entire episode was captured on surveillance video that showed other people on the train at the time, Bernhardt said. "There was a lot of people, in my opinion, that should have intervened; somebody should have done something," Bernhardt said. "It speaks to where we are in society. I mean, who would allow something like that to take place? So it’s troubling." Fiston Ngoy, 35, has been charged with rape, aggravated indecent assault and related counts, according to Delaware County court records. Bernhardt said both SEPTA and Upper Darby Police are familiar with Ngoy.

| #3 ^ I agree . I would also add anyone that stood there, recorded the Rape and did not call 911. Should be charged as co-conspirators. |

| #2 Is he an Illegal, a green card asylum import, or a US Citizen? He's an animal. |

| #1 Just how morally sick is Philly? Investigators said the assault went on for 8+ minutes, and no other riders tried to stop the attack or call the police. Some may even have videoed the rape for themselves, police said. Since the name NGOY is common to the African nation of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. A Question: Is he an Illegal, a green card asylum import, or a US Citizen? |
