"Fatal Subway Push: NYC's Ongoing Underground Attacks"

A subway rider in NYC was pushed onto the tracks and killed by a train, leading to the arrest of Carlton McPherson on a murder charge. This incident is part of a series of violent episodes in the city's transit system, prompting officials to increase policing and crack down on fare evasion.
