Zhongqiang Chen, 32, was arrested for allegedly fatally stabbing 54-year-old Timothy Rudolph during an argument on the N train, with unclear motivations.
Officers discovered Rudolph with a stab wound in his back at Coney Island's subway station, where he succumbed to his injuries shortly after.
Despite the current incident, NYPD data reveals a notable decrease in subway crime incidences, with 112 fewer reported in 2024 compared to previous years.
In response to increased concerns about transit safety following the pandemic, New York officials have intensified police presence within the subway system.
