Dallas Area Rapid Transit police say two people are now in custody in connection with the attack on a train passenger by a group of people Sunday night.

Jakobi Darion Hendrix was booked into the Dallas County jail Thursday evening on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to authorities.

Remon Hendrix, 23, was arrested in the 2400 block of Lemmon Avenue shortly before 1 a.m. for multiple outstanding warrants, Tamika Dameron, Dallas police spokeswoman, confirmed.

Additional details about the arrests or the investigation into the other people involved has not been released.

The beating prompted questions from the community about the safety of those who use the DART system and the lack of security cameras on the trains.

DART officials said a group of people were smoking on a Green Line train at the Baylor University Medical Center Station. A man asked them to stop smoking, leading to a confrontation that ended with the group attacking him.

When the train stopped at the next station, the fight spilled out onto the platform. DART police intervened shortly afterward, according to spokesman Mark Ball.

"When we saw them tumble out onto the station, DART police were notified immediately," Ball said. "Within 10 minutes, we had officers there."

Ball said DART police did little initially because there are no surveillance cameras inside the trains and they were only going off of the surveillance video on the platform. None of the trains that run along the largest light rail system in the country are equipped with security cameras.

“When we replace the existing trains, all future ones will have cameras,” Ball said. “[There is] no timetable for that yet. Our buses only came with cameras in the last few years when we bought a new fleet.”

As far as safety is concerned, there had been a total of 341 Part 1 crimes — considered the most serious, according to the FBI — reported in the DART system as of the end of May. Of those, 224 incidents were acts of larceny or theft, according to statistics kept by DART Police.

There had been 22 reports of aggravated assaults through the end of May, an average of one aggravated assault per week.

DART trains have been the scene of the highest number of crimes reported in the DART system this year. Of the 341 reported Part 1 Crimes, 92 happened on a train.

The next two most frequently reported DART system crime scenes from Jan. 1 through May are in parking lots — 85 reported crimes — and on light rail platforms — 69 crimes reported.

It was on the news this morning as well but only saw that they arrested one.. Regardless what they were smoking it is not allowed on a train.. And well in Texas it is pretty stupid to be smoking weed out in public.... Stupid does as stupid is~~~~~

I'm just glad that Dart picked up the charges even though the guy did not want to press charges.. Why let them get away with it and do it to someone else that disagrees with them.. The next person might not be as lucky as he was...

i was thinking he didn't want to send more blacks to prison...but DART doesn't care, they have to many people to look out for...the thing that surprises me the most is no cameras on the train...
