1) SPCs and Fare Inspectors are NOT the same. SPCs are Peace Officers. Fare Inspectors are civilians.
2) The subject was not beat up/assaulted. He was arrested. Lawfully. By Peace Officers (SPCs). After responding to riders requesting help.

First, a little cheat. @MosheMarvit & I landed an op-ed in the @nytimes a few days before New Years last year.
