2026-09-23

Commuters were shocked by a bloody confrontation that unfolded on the Taipei MRT in the morning rush hour on Wednesday. According to witnesses, a man punched a woman in the face multiple times, after she accidentally stepped on him when she was getting off the train at Ximen. The woman was left bloodied, and allegedly ended up with several fractured teeth.

Voice of witness
Saw the confrontation
The woman had apparently stepped on him, and then he started beating her. He punched her three or four times really hard on the chin. She was bleeding from the first punch already. She said he had broken two or three of her teeth.

The incident happened in the morning rush hour, as the train was full of commuters. The assailant, Mr. Tsai, was speaking on the phone uncomfortably close to the woman, who told him to stop. Then when they got off the train, she accidentally stepped on Mr. Tsai, who got upset and started beating her.

Blood splattered throughout the train car, streaking from the floor all the way to the doors. Cleaning staff had to mop up the mess. Although neither side plans to press charges, authorities say the man was still in the wrong for throwing the first punch. He was referred to authorities under Taiwan’s Social Order Maintenance Act and could still face a penalty.

捷運藍線流血衝突! 女勸男電話太大聲下車踩腳遭痛毆

2026-09-23

台北捷運西門至龍山寺站發生一起流血衝突，當時人潮眾多，有女子勸導一名男子不要講電話，雙方因此爆發口角衝突，並在下車時又踩到男子腳後跟，讓黑衣男暴怒竟朝女子臉部揮打，當場濺血，目擊乘客一度還以為打斷牙，嚇到趕緊報警！

[[聲源:目擊民眾]]
“說女生踩他，然後他就直接打了那個女生，大概連續打了3到4拳吧，是非常大力的，是真的非常用力的往他下巴去打，他其實打第一拳的時候，就流血了，他(女子)說他把他牙齒打斷了2、3顆吧”

[[民視記者李豫翰]]
“上班尖峰時刻捷運車廂人擠人，蔡姓男子講電話離女子太近，先遭到口頭制止，後續下車時又不小心踩到對方的腳，男子氣的直接動手揮拳”

捷運車廂內滴滿血滴，一路從地板蔓延到門上，清潔人員拿著拖把，仔細清潔車廂。西門町捷運站不論何時，人潮都相當多，更有不少觀光客搭乘，這回男子不滿女子管太多動手，雙方雖然都不提告，但先動手就是不對，男子仍被依社維法送辦，要付出代價。

Local sheep prefer evenings out over targeted grazing

Yesterday evening around 8pm, cars were stuck at intersections in Xiluo Township of Yunlin due to a sheep jam. You heard that right. Sheep. A landowner borrowed a flock of sheep to clear the weeds in an open area, but the sneaky sheep had slipped through the cracks in the fence and decided to clock off work early. Local residents quickly banded together to capture the animals.

The sky is dark, but bright fluffy clouds are seen on the road. These are actually sheep who don’t want to go home.

- Xiluo Night Market is here.
Going inside the market
- Go left. Go left.

On Tuesday evening in Yunlin County, sheep suddenly appeared on Fulai Road in Xiluo Township. Who let the sheep out? Local residents also wondered this as they quickly alerted the relevant authorities to help find the owner. They banded together using messaging groups to help capture the sheep.

-They’re over there!

Concerned about sheep
You have to grab the sheep, tighten the reins around its neck quickly and stop it from escaping. What else can you do?

Likes to eat lamb
I brought my daughter to see what sheep look like before they are cooked, hahahaha.

Member of public
Great sense of humor
This is hilarious. Has anyone called the police?

It was later revealed that a landscaper borrowed the flock to graze on overgrown grass in some open areas. Unfortunately, the sheep were uninterested in working and followed their leader towards Xiluo Night Market for an exciting night on the town.

Member of public
The sheep are still on the road, let’s surround them, once rounded off, we can slowly approach.

Member of public
Eager to catch sheep
Help us round them, help us catch them!

It took dozens of people more than an hour to round up the runaway sheep and load them in a small truck. Local residents joked that the activity was “more tiring than a sports meet.” Using sheep for targeted grazing and weed control is sustainable, but perhaps the fluffy creatures are more interested in becoming traffic police than landscapers.

DPP candidate in Hualien collapses mid-song onstage and dies in hospital

A desperate race to save a local election candidate in Hualien ended in tragedy. During a Mid-Autumn Festival celebration Tuesday night, 53-year-old DPP candidate Chiu Feng-ying suddenly collapsed onstage while singing. Campaign workers from different candidates and political parties immediately sprang into action, taking turns performing CPR until she was rushed to the hospital. But after a night of treatment, her family made the heartbreaking decision to withdraw life support early Wednesday morning.

- Hang on. If you’re tired, let’s switch with Chairman Chien.

Campaign staff from different candidates and parties rush to perform CPR on the woman on the floor. While some perform compressions, others stay on the side ready to jump in when needed. The woman is Chiu Feng-ying, a DPP candidate running to represent Sinchen Township in Hualien.

Shih Sheng-kang
EMT
She was seen collapsing onto the ground on stage while she was singing. When we arrived, she wasn’t breathing and didn’t have a pulse, so we immediately began administering CPR.

The incident happened at a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet at Shun’an Village on Tuesday evening. Chiu had gone to the event to meet with her supporters. She was singing onstage when she suddenly collapsed mid-song and lost her vital signs.

She was rushed to the hospital, and at one point regained a weak pulse. Ultimately her family decided to cease resuscitation efforts at 3 in the morning.

Voice of Chen Ching-feng
DPP Hualien Office
A CT scan revealed that she likely suffered a ruptured cerebral aneurism, which caused intracranial bleeding.

Hu Jen-shun
Hualien County Councilor (DPP)
She passed away after life support was withdrawn in the early hours of the morning. As her comrade in the DPP, we walked the same road to democracy and freedom, and worked side-by-side on the campaign trail. We are devastated. We will finish the project she started.

Chiu passed away at the age of 53. Some 10 years ago, she moved from Taoyuan to Hualien for work. After getting involved with the local community, she decided to take an extra step and run for election. Sadly, tragedy struck before she could see her first campaign through.
