On January 5, 2015 at approximately 5:15pm Transit Police officers working in Area 1 were on patrol at the MBTA's South Station Commuter Rail. While there they were approached by a concerned patron who informed them a male was making inappropriate comments to female patrons. The officers located the male subject, later identified as Joseph Granigan, 48, of South Weymouth inside the lobby area.
