F Train Fatally Hits 25 Year Old
Yesterday around noon, a 25 year old man was killed by an F train. amNew York reports the Queens-bound train had been entering the 57th Street and 6th Avenue station. The police do not suspect any criminality in his death, but it's not clear what happened.
Lisa Rae Davis who was walking down the stairs to the platform told amNY that she heard a "really loud thud" when the train pulled in. When she got into the first car, another passenger said the train must have hit someone. Davis took a cameraphone photograph of the shattered window on the front of the train.
Earlier this week, amNY looked at the causes of deaths on subways; most are from natural causes.
