BALTIMORE - Authorities are investigating after video surfaced showing two men fighting another man and trying to push him out of a moving train in Baltimore, reports CBS Baltimore.

Councilman Brandon Scott said authorities were made aware of the incident after cell phone video of the altercation was posted online.

MTA police say there have been no complaints regarding the incident and no one who witnessed it has stepped forward.

The video was posted online by a woman named Diana Benow who posted it along with the message, "This is what goes down in my city. Baltimore, be careful."

MTA police say that based on the video, they believe the train was either arriving or leaving the Mondawmin station.

The citizens of Baltimore are now asking that security be stepped up on the city's trains.

"Frankly, the MTA police need to step their game up," said Councilman Nick Mosby.

Authorities are asking anyone with information on the incident to call them at (410) 454-7720.
