A man was dragged to death by a New York City subway train when a bag he was carrying got stuck in the door during the Monday evening rush hour commute, according to police.
Yaw Boahene, 57, had been exiting the train at a Brooklyn subway station around 6 p.m. when his bag, which police described as a shopping bag, snagged in the closing train doors. The Brooklyn resident was pulled onto the tracks and run over by the train as it left the station, police said in a statement.
I wonder if this was caused in part by assholes pushing onto the train before people could get off.
I found in the 2000s that shouting MAKE A HOLE or STEP BACK in the face of some rusher sometimes helped…my stress level.
