According to NBC 10 Philadelphia, it was a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority employee who walked into the situation, saw what was happening, and called the police.
“I’m appalled by those who did nothing to help this woman,” Upper Darby Township Police Department superintendent Timothy Bernhardt said Sunday, per the New York Times. “Anybody that was on that train has to look in the mirror and ask why they didn’t intervene or why they didn’t do something.” A spokesperson for SEPTA told the Times that Ngoy “attempted to touch [the woman] a few times” after approaching her around 10 p.m. on October 13 on a Market-Frankford Line train. Although the woman tried to stop him, “he proceeded to rip her clothes off.
Ngoy is being held at the Delaware County Jail, but as for the bystanders, Bernhardt reportedly said any of them who recorded the assault could face criminal charges too. He clarified, however, that it would be up to the Delaware County district attorney’s office to make that call and to decide what the charges might be. Meanwhile, the victim was taken to the hospital and is reportedly recovering. “Unbelievably strong woman. She really is. She came forward, she provided a lot of information.
