The appeal for information comes just days after a 14-year-old was arrested for kicking a commuter into a moving train at Back Bay Station. That victim was left bleeding heavily from head wounds after a mob of teenagers attacked him over a transit card dispute.
Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to contact the Transit Police Criminal Investigation Unit at 617-222-1050. Tips can be submitted anonymously.
