A woman recently dies of hate crime

Meanwhile, police say a woman was shoved to her death in front of a subway train at the Times Square station on Saturday, little over a week after the mayor and governor announced plans to beef up subway patrols and outreach to homeless individuals on the city's streets and trains.

At a press conference with Mayor Eric Adams at the station, Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell stated the individual suspected of being responsible fled the scene but turned himself in to transit police a short time later. Michelle Alyssa Go, a 40-year-old Asian-American woman from New York, was waiting for a southbound R train at 9:40 am when she was allegedly shoved.

A second lady told police she had been contacted by the man minutes before and was afraid he would force her down the rails. As word of the newest subway system attack circulated, Manhattan metro commuters were astonished and horrified. Simon Martial, 61, was identified as the suspect by police late Saturday night.

Martial was charged with second-degree murder when authorities discovered he was destitute. During the outbreak, many New Yorkers have been concerned about subway facilities and safety. Although police figures suggest that significant offences on subways have decreased in recent years, ridership has also decreased, making comparisons impossible.

Recent attacks have also drawn public attention and sparked anxiety. Three transportation personnel were assaulted in separate instances on the same day in September. In May, a group of assailants stabbed and attacked many passengers on a train in lower Manhattan; and in February, four separate stabbings - two of which were deadly - occurred within a few hours on a single subway line.

Several individuals have been stabbed, punched, or forced into the rails at subway stations in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Times Square in recent months. The attack on Go on Saturday came amid a spike in anti-Asian hate crimes in New York and around the country. Officials said the homicide was under investigation, including if it was a hate crime; but they noted that the first lady Martial reportedly approached was not Asian. Martial is a black person, South China Morning Post reported.
