KTRK: METRO cops hogtie woman!

KTRK-13 reports tonight on a bit of police work that doesn't make the news every day:

An altercation on a METRO bus ended with a woman being shocked by a Taser.

It happened around 5pm near Mesa and Tidwell in northeast Houston. METRO bus marshals on one bus spotted a woman assaulting another woman on a different bus across the street. They entered the bus to attempt to stop the attack.

The 29-year-old woman accused in the attack was shocked at least once and arrested. After she was placed in a squad car, she reportedly tried to kick out the windows. Authorities then hogtied the woman.

Give the METRO Cop Academy credit for teaching the important art of the hogtie!
