Occurred in August 2020 / England, UK

Info: Liam Bennett was traveling from Chatham to St Pancreas International when a passenger not wearing a mask was harassed by other passengers. "A woman was on the train with her young children when an older couple confronted her about wearing a mask," said Liam. When the lady was arguing loudly with the older man trying to explain why she was not wearing one the older gentleman commented she should go back to her country" said Liam. At that moment Liam stepped in to intervene. "I believe the woman with the children got off a few stops later, it seemed to have calmed down after I stopped filming. No one else seemed willing or bothered to intervene!" added Liam.
