"Our officers were dispatched up here. While they were en route, at some point the male suspect on the train did assault at least four individuals on the train with a knife."
It was a frightening scene
(SOUNDBITE) (English) PASSENGER CAITLIN CIPRI SAYING:
"I heard somebody screaming and yelling just loud. I look up and there's an African American gentleman standing over someone who's sitting down in one of the first seats in the car and I see him have his fist up and then bring it down."
Three passengers and a conductor were injured. Williams faces four counts of assault and a one million dollar bond.
