UPDATE, 12:10 p.m.: The MBTA reports three of the four have turned themselves in - they walked into Transit Police HQ just as Supt. Joseph O'Connor was briefing the media on the case. More to come.

Transit Police report a man and his 14-year-old daughter were beaten by four men on a Blue Line train around 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 18.

After repeatedly punching the man in the head and his daughter in the thigh, the four sauntered off the train at Airport, police say.

If these guys look familiar, contact detectives at 617-222-1050 or send an anonymous tip to 873873.

WTF man.. attackin kids?!? really?

That's not what the Darwin Awards mean. They would be eligible if they attacked the third rail, with their tongues.

They punched the daughter in the thigh? Like a Charlie Horse?

I kinda feel like 4 grown men punching a 14 year old girl anywhere is more serious than a charlie horse.

Caught in prime derp-face mode.

I wish they would attack the third rail with their tongues. Little pricks. Who the Hell just attacks a man and his daughter? Disgusting.

I dunno but they ain't yuppies, that's for sure. Bet you a nickel they were born and raised in Boston.

How about "stop and summarily execute" for anyone who looks like that?

By Scratchie on Tue, 10/01/2013 - 6:28pm.

How about we send those white thugs back where they came from!

When's the last time you heard about unruly Wampanoags raising hell on the subway? It's been all downhill since the paleface punks arrived.

The Globe is reporting that the daughter was 18 years old (not that it makes it any better)

If someone pushes you and you punch them, you are not innocent.

That's the way we've always done it in Eastie, you yuppie! If you don't like it, go back to Weston!
