Denver police arrested a 24-year-old man Saturday morning who allegedly assaulted a RTD security officer aboard a train.
The incident happened shortly before 8:50 a.m. on the A Line near the 38th and Blake RTD station in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood.
Cell phone video shared with Denver7 shows the scuffle between the security officer and the man. At one point, the security officer is seen trying to keep the passenger in a chokehold until the train comes to a stop and Denver police arrive to help detain the man. The video also shows a gun near the suspect, which appears to have fallen during the scuffle. Police confirmed it was a toy gun.
An RTD spokesperson said the alleged assault happened after the security officer asked for the man’s ticket. According to the probable cause statement, the security officer asked the man to leave the train, the man refused and he then assaulted the officer.
