HORRIFYING footage shows the moment a woman “hit a female cop in the face” and left her sobbing in the corner of a train.
Police were seen attempting to restrain a female passenger on a train that had stopped at Birmingham New Street Station, in a video posted on X.
Filmed by another passenger, the woman was recorded shouting verbal abuse at officers before she then “hit” a female cop onboard the CrossCountry train.
She was then quickly escorted her off the service while the female officer let out a cry, remaining on the floor near the closed door of the train.
Members of British Transport Police could be heard shouting “calm down now” as they attempted to restrain the woman.
One other officer remained with the female cop to console her and appeared to request for medical assistance in the video.
The woman was held up against the wall of the platform while officers tried to restrain her, with one heard shouting “stop resisting”.
She was eventually taken to the floor by cops despite seeming to attempt to wriggle her way out of the hold.
A person on the train can be overheard saying: “She’s kicking the police officers.”
Turning back to the train, the female officer can be seen in distress and crying, still remaining in the same position on the floor next to the closed door.
British Transport Police confirmed that a woman was arrested at Birmingham New Street on suspicion of domestic violence and two counts of assault against an emergency worker.
Commenting under the video on X, the force said: “We have zero-tolerance for violence on the railway, particularly against officers just doing their job.
“Officers were responding to a separate incident on the train at Birmingham New Street railway station when they were made aware of a report of domestic violence.
“An officer was assaulted whilst separating the pair, requiring hospital treatment.
“A second officer was also assaulted.
“A woman was arrested on suspicion of one count of domestic violence and two counts of assault against an emergency worker.”
The video – captioned “A woman hit a police officer at Birmingham new street station” – has already amassed well over 100,000 views and hundreds of comments, with some condemning the incident.
One user said: “Shocking behaviour, poor policewoman sitting distressed on the floor.”
Just last month, a man was spotted running from a barber shop mid-haircut to help cops that were being attacked at a bus stop in Warrington, Cheshire.
Kyle Whiting was getting a trim when he spotted an officer being punched by a thug at a bus stop.
Still wearing his barber’s cape, he ran across the road and wrestled with the yob until two further police vehicles arrived.
