re: Bronx bus rider slashes woman in altercation

quote:

---

When the bus stopped, Henriquez prepared to step off and walk away — but then she heard the woman laughing.

“I ended up coming back on the bus to go ahead and confront her. We ended up fighting," Henriquez said. "I don't know who hit who first, but I then went to grab her jacket to take a swing at her. She ended up grabbing my jacket and swung at me.

“At some point, I grabbed her hair. Then she kept hitting me and hitting me and I didn't know she had a blade in her hand until my girlfriend told me I was bleeding."

I had a lot more sympathy before I read this. I will never understand how adults can get into fistfights over non-life threatening situations.
