There will never be enough words to express our gratitude for her tremendous work and dedication.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Officials with the Los Angeles Metro Transit Authority released a statement on Thursday regarding the attack:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Metro is appalled upon hearing of this incident. Metro\u2019s highest concern is the safety of our customers, and along with our law enforcement partners, we have zero tolerance for crimes committed against our customers. Perpetrators will be aggressively investigated and prosecuted to the greatest extent of the law.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The incident has left members of the community shaken. One mother, Braneka Wilson, <a href=\"https:\/\/abc7.com\/nurse-assault-bus-stop-downtown-la\/11465306\/\">spoke<\/a> with KABC as she and her daughter waited for a bus.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span>My concerns is safety issues. A lot of homeless people are out here harassing the patrons waiting for the bus. It\u2019s unsafe. They\u2019re down here trying to rob us, rape us, anything they can do, they\u2019re yelling at us, it\u2019s a lot of mental health. And I think that law enforcement needs to come out and kind of, address these issues, to make the city more safe.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Transit crimes in Democrat-run cities have been making headlines as of late.
