‘It’s just bad. And karma is real – God don’t like ugly,’ said Nene who is also a mother to a four-year-old girl, to Boston25 News.
‘That’s sad because that could be their father and I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t want that to be done to their dad,’ she added.

‘It’s horrible. Obviously, no one ever deserves that. I hope whoever sees them comes and tells the police because we need to get them,’ said Tariq Sobhi from the Boston suburb of Quincy

It was a view also shared by other riders of Boston’s T subway.
‘It’s horrible. Obviously, no one ever deserves that. I hope whoever sees them comes and tells the police because we need to get them,’ said Tariq Sobhi from the Boston suburb of Quincy.
‘Definitely, there’s always precautions but you shouldn’t be that way. It’s a safe town and we should all feel safe on our town so I hope they get caught and justice is served,’ he said.
