Maniac who allegedly pushed woman onto NYC subway tracks, punched straphanger, also slugged teen girl during rampage
"A maniac who allegedly pushed a woman onto Brooklyn subway tracks and punched another straphanger in the face Saturday finished off his violent tirade by pummeling an innocent 17-year-old girl moments later, prosecutors revealed Sunday. Curtis Signal - who has a history of violence against women - slugged the teen "dead in the face," prosecutors alleged during his arraignment Sunday evening in Brooklyn Criminal Court on a slew of charges."
"Signal, 25, had first approached three ladies on the R subway line at 53rd Street and Fourth Avenue in Sunset Parkearly Saturday, telling one woman to "shut up" before lunging at them, Langsam said. He pushed a 51-year-old woman onto the train tracks, causing the stranger to sustain "substantial pain to the body and a laceration to the face," Langsam said. Signal continued the aggressive outburst, punching a 44-year-old woman and causing her face to swell, prosecutors added."
"As the career criminal fled the subway station, he began yelling as he walked away, causing a 17-year-old girl to try to get out of his way, Langsam revealed. Signal asked the teen, "Are you a gangster?" then "punched her dead in the face," while saying "Little girl thought she was gangster," the ADA said."
