Video: Teen Punches Woman After ‘Racist’ Remarks

A video of a nasty altercation between a teen and a woman on a London train has gone viral, with tens of thousands having seen the three-minute video. The incident allegedly began before the video, when the young man stepped on the woman’s shoe, prompting an exchange of vicious insults, with the woman calling the teen a “smelly f—— Nigerian.”

“I wouldn’t f—ing touch you. You are f—ing s— on my shoe” the woman says at the start of the video. “OK white princess, queen, Kate Middleton!” the young man replied.

He described her behavior as characteristic of Americans, as they continued to trade venomous remarks.

“B——s like you will steal from me” she said, before calling him a “smelly f—— Nigerian.”

The confrontation did not end with words. As the train pulled into a stop, the woman allegedly hit him with a bottle, and the teen lunged at her, throwing punches. Other passengers broke up the scuffle.

“You hit me on the head with a bottle… you racist b—-… looking at you, you f—— escort. There are witnesses. Everyone seen, everyone heard!” he yelled.

The news site Daily Mail identified the young man as Cidz Carnage, a 19-year-old aspiring recording artist. Posting from his account @carnageofficial, he detailed his account. “Calling me a smelly african. wtf,” he tweeted. “Then having the audacity is hit me with a bottle.” All of the tweets have been deleted. His Twitter account lists him as 20 years old, though in the video he says he is 19.

British Transport Police said it will investigate, and has asked both parties to come forward.

“There is an allegation of abusive behavior by the woman towards the man, but that doesn’t justify a violent response. The man and woman pictured in the images are seen arguing with each other on the video and we’re keen to speak to both of them to get their version of events,” a police spokesman said to the Daily Mail.

“We urge them or anyone who knows them, as well as passengers who were on the train at the time, to come forward so we can begin to build a full picture of what exactly took place.”
