Vigilantes deliver street justice to brute who grabbed, attacked woman on NYC subway platform, dramatic video shows​

Wild new video shows the moment a crew of vigilantes delivered street justice to a brute who grabbed and bear-hugged a young woman at a Brooklyn subway station — only for the menace to be cut loose in court a day later.

Fredrick Marshall, 42, a complete stranger, allegedly followed the 20-year-old woman onto the Manhattan-bound J train platform at Norwood Avenue in Cypress Hills around 9 a.m. Sunday, when he started arguing with her.

Now-viral video posted by TikTok user @nicabori5 shows the hulking brute, wearing all white, grabbing the woman as she tried to walk away.

The victim began to scream for help, prompting several men to gather on the elevated platform.


“Let her go!” one yelled.


But that didn’t deter Marshall, who allegedly shoved the woman to the ground and bear-hugged her as she attempted to run away a second time, according to cops and prosecutors.

That’s when the bystanders jumped in and pulled the victim away from the violent menace, police said.

They appeared to pummel him on the platform as one of the vigilantes yelled, “I’m gonna f–k you up!”

Their intervention allowed the shaken victim to escape, and she could be seen crying on the phone with her mom as she ran to the other end of the platform.

“Get that, n—a!” one of the Samaritans yelled as he backed off, according to the video.

“Somebody try to tell you something, chill the f–k out? Now you got it!”

The woman was treated on scene by EMS for shoulder pain and minor injuries to her stomach and arms, police said.

Meanwhile, Marshall, of Queens, was arrested at the scene and found to be carrying a knife and a blackjack, cops said.

He was charged with third-degree assault, fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, third-degree attempted assault and second-degree harassment, according to a criminal complaint.

Marshall — who cops say has no prior arrests — was granted supervised release during his arraignment the next day, as the charges are not bail-eligible, according to the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office.
