Riders expressed feelings of unease after a woman was burned to death aboard a train in Coney Island, noting the proximity of such violence to their daily commute.
Despite this homicide being the third crime in three days aboard trains in Brooklyn, New York City statistics indicated that subway crime citywide has decreased compared to last year.
One commuter remarked, "That's just crazy. I never would've even thought anything would've happened on a train that I take locally," highlighting the shock among riders.
Buses were put into service to supplement the F train line following the incident, as authorities urged riders to check the MTA's website for updates.
