A woman drunkenly tumbled onto subway tracks and was fatally struck by a train in Brooklyn early Sunday, despite her friendβs best efforts to save her, cops said.
The 30-year-old victim fell off the Broadway Junction A/C train platform around 12:20 a.m., according to police. She tumbled between two subway cars on a Manhattan-bound A train as it began to roll away from the station, said MTA spokesman Shams Tarek.
Pro-democracy demonstrators vandalised a train station on Sunday in the central new town of Sha Tin in the New Territories region and smashed up a restaurant perceived as being pro-Beijing, overturning tables and smashing glass panels, two weeks before district council elections in the Chinese-ruled city.
Violence also spilled out onto the streets of Tuen Mun outside the “V city” mall with running battles between riot police and protesters.
