Police believe two women got into an argument on the X2 which turned into a physical fight. Video of the incident reportedly shows a white woman calling others the n-word while leaving the bus, and then the next clip shows her on the street with a bloody face as people yell at her.

The video was posted to Twitter, but it includes graphic use of a racial slur and violence, and so it is not being published here. A more detailed account of the altercation, as well as the video, can be found here.
