Rider records knife attack at MARTA station doesn't call police

MARTA Police are urging their riders to use Marta's new "See and Say" app to report suspicious activity. The reminder comes after someone posted disturbing video of an August 9 knife attack at the Ashby Road MARTA station.

The video was recorded on a camera phone. Police say neither the man who recorded the attack, nor other bystanders contacted police to report the incident.

MARTA officials say the "See and Say" app allows riders to discreetly report a crime or other emergency to a MARTA dispatcher.
