So sad. It could happen to anyone l. Let’s be kind.
They found body parts on the street and are still looking. Kids shouldn’t be allowed on this app. They had to have a police man ask them to stop yelling that they need to get on the train and a man just died
Lots of disrespectful kids at the scene screaming, I was up there right after it happened and have to go to work now. Have no idea what happened but luckily a fireman turned me around before I could see.
They dont got no where to be. Parents gave them an easy life and they playing around. Not even home wants them, disappointments
