Watch NJ Transit Conductor Eject Woman Who Refused To Move Purse

NEWARK, NJ — Here's a follow-up video, shot by the same passenger, of the now-infamous woman who refused to take her Louis Vuitton purse off the seat next to her on a crowded NJ Transit train Wednesday night.

She was effectively taking up two seats on what was a very crowded train on the Northeast Corridor line.

The incident happened Wednesday evening, Feb. 13 as the train was headed south towards Newark Penn station. The entire exchange was captured by a fellow rider, who gave the videos to NJ Advance Media/NJ.com, which posted the videos to YouTube. Watch both videos below — first of the woman being asked by other passengers to move her bag, and the second video that shows the conductor calling NJ Transit police, who asked the woman to come off the train to talk.

"You want your personal space? You'll have it outside," the conductor can be heard saying.

She complied with police and was escorted off the train at Newark Penn station. She left officers at that point on the platform, an NJ Transit spokeswoman told Patch.

It happened aboard a Trenton-bound Northeast Corridor train #3955 and other passengers can be heard saying how crowded the train was. The unidentified woman can be seen with her Louis Vuitton purse placed in the open seat next to her and she refused to move it when asked multiple times by other passengers.

“There are plenty of seats," the young woman says. Then to another passenger, she said, "You’re not disabled, you’re not pregnant, I don't give a f---."

"There are not a lot of seats, people are standing!," a woman angrily tells her.

"I don't want your bedbugs, your smell. You're disgusting; don't sit next to me. Shut the f--- up," the young woman replies.

The drama ratchets up even higher when an NJ Transit conductor intervenes. He touches her bag and asks her to move it to an overhead rack above. "Don't put your hands on my stuff!" the woman shrieks.

"Ma'am, put it up there or I'm gonna get you off the train right now," the conductor threatens her.

She continues to ignore him and listens to her music. The conductor can be heard calling NJ Transit police.

The police were called to the first car for a report by the conductor of an unruly passenger.

"When train 3955 arrived at Newark Penn Station last night, New Jersey Transit Police asked the woman to exit the train to discuss the situation," said NJ Transit spokeswoman Lisa Torbic. "Train 3955 was then able to depart the station. The woman refused to cooperate with police and left on her own."

"We encourage customers to make every seat available by placing bags on their laps or on overhead luggage racks and complying with the direction of train crews," she added.
