The Gateway Pundit reported on a horrific incident captured on video of a man sitting on a bench and watching as a woman he lit on fire inside a New York City subway train as she burned to death.
The woman was asleep on the train as she was lit on fire by the suspect at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue subway station around 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.
According to The New York Post, A Guatemalan migrant has been arrested for the henious crime.
A Guatemalan migrant has been arrested for allegedly lighting a sleeping subway rider on fire in Brooklyn on Sunday morning — then watching as his innocent victim burned to death in what the police commissioner called “one of the most depraved crimes one person could possibly commit.”
*******
Officials said the 33-year-old suspect came to the US in 2018 from Guatemala. His legal status wasn’t immediately clear Sunday night.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D), in yet another case of tone deaf timing, took to social media the same day to brag about the safety of New York’s subway.
On Sunday morning, Hochul shared on X, “In March, I took action to make our subways safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day. Since deploying the @NationalGuardNY to support @NYPDnews and @MTA safety efforts and adding cameras to all subway cars, crime is going down, and ridership is going up.”

While the Governor was posting cute selfies on the train, pictures of the chared body of an innocent woman were sweeping social media.
Safer for everyone except the lady getting burned alive today on your subways.
